Really helped my family member when we couldn't get in to any local doctors
My family member had been seeing a therapist for about 9 months. When the decision was made to try medication, we could not get in to see any providers in our area for months. My husband found the brightside app and we were able to schedule a zoom appointment within 36 hours. I provided detailed history via the app before the appointment and this made the appointment go much smoother. The gentleman my family member spoke to was calm, kind and non-judgemental and agreed with our therapist's recommendation. Within 3 hours we had the medication in hand. Seeing that most meds take 3-6 weeks to make a difference, we felt that time was of the essence. I cannot speak to the level of care you'd receive if you didn't have a therapist already, but we knew we wanted to try some medication and Brightside made it easy for us. My family member is continuing to see his therapist and he has a follow up with the brightside nurse this week. So far, so good! It was a quick and easy step to take when local doctors were either not accepting new patients or their first available appointment time was months away.
