Dr Pansy Lai

Mental Health General Practitioner, Mindsight Clinic
Just to give you a bit of background, I’ve been in general practice for 20 years but have now transitioned to a role where I work as a Mental Health GP at a psychiatrist clinic in Sydney: https://mindsightclinic.com.au/mental-health-gps It’s a new model of care – I do mental health assessments and refer to psychiatrists at my clinic or manage as necessary. As a result I do plenty of Adult ADHD initial assessments. The psychiatrists see them once and prescribe psychostimulants if necessary and then the patients return to me for titration, support, skills coaching and therapy as required. I am undertaking a Masters of Psychotherapy in addition to my FPS training and so I use a lot of psychological strategies to support my ADHD patients with good results.
