Pain management there aren't any
Mental health is only the 2 hour wait group

You don't have to see a "pain management" doc to receive all the treatments and meds one would traditionally expect from them. In fact, as I wrote in a thread yesterday, I think there are disadvantages to seeing them. What do you want from a pm doc exactly? I've only seen a neurologist once and he wasn't terribly helpful.

Regarding mental health providers, you might find someone who will work on a sliding scale. If you went to at least one appointment at your local clinic and explained what your issues are with the wait, they might be able to refer you to other organizations or programs that would be suitable.
