Across Specialties
Physicians from other specialties and therapists write about what their practice shows them about psychiatry. The GP, the dentist, the physiotherapist see our patients differently from us. Each piece is followed by the editors’ view: what is demonstrated, what is suggested, what rests on expert opinion.

Benzodiazepines, antipsychotics: who monitors physical health?
In Dubai, many patients arrive on psychotropic medication started elsewhere, by a doctor they will never see again. Somewhere between countries and prescribers, physical health monitoring tends to get lost along the way. A family physician and former emergency doctor reflects on what this has taught him about sharing care with psychiatry.
