Hello!

Hi, my name is Michael and I appreciate the chance to be a part of OPM! Nearing forty and I still have numerous premedical studies to accomplish…but I am steadfast in my goal. I’ve been in practice as a behavioral healthcare provider for almost 15 years and have found there to be a gross lack of access to both child/adolescent and adult psychiatry – whether rural, agency, outpatient, inpatient, telemed, etc. I’m excited to be on this journey but quite reserved. I feel it’s a nice balance at this time – not overly confident nor apprehensive about the next step. I figure if the door is suppose to close it will close. I look forward to interacting here and wish everyone the best in their endeavor.

Welcome Michael! How did you find the forum? Have you checked out the podcast?

Just a good ol’ Google search… I believe it popped up in an ‘IUHS’ search… I have not checked out the podcast. Thanks for the welcoming!
