Dr. Bob's site could have link to various p-docs web pages. The pages would give a breif history or description of the psychiatrists area of specialty, etc. The links could be organized by specialty and/or location. Dr.s on the site would also have to note whether they are allowed to practice out of state or out of country. For example, can an Italian p-doc consult a U.S. citizen. Can an Italian P-doc prescribe for a U.S. citizen.

> BobWhy not add a 'sponsor' tag or whatever... letting everyone know that that's what they are... or a disclaimer
"The ads on this site are contributed by sponsors and do not necessariy (sp?-man I can't think straight) mean they are endorsed by Dr. Bob or the U of C or their staff... yadayadayada....
