Need a recommendation for a psychiatrist, asap

A family member is looking to wean from dangerous psych meds that a psychiatrist put her on.

They are experiencing all the classic symptoms of TD- tardive dyskinesia and can barely take care of themselves.

Looking for a competent psychiatrist that is non-Kaiser, anywhere in the bay area.

I appreciate any leads.

I highly recommend Dr. Michael Kron, based in Walnut Creek. He is an absolutely fantastic psychiatrist. He is cash only — no insurance. I started seeing him 6 years ago after having a really bad experience with Kaiser’s mental health services. Dr. Kron does a very thorough intake and is extremely caring, responsive, respectful, and systematic. He is smart and knowledgeable and works with you to figure out the best treatment for you. I cannot say enough good about his impact on my life. The right treatment makes all the difference. Good luck!
