I recently decided to pursue fellowship in Geriatric psych (woot!). While making the decision, I found myself going back and forth between it and neuropsychiatry. Ultimately, geri psych felt a better fit because I so deeply enjoy the work with families, coordinating complex systems of care, as well as ECT/TMS/geriatric depression management. Hoping to have a niche in health services for those with Dementia, early diagnosis/management of MCI. I was curious if others have debated between these two fellowships and what contributed to your ultimate decision?
For those currently in or having already completed geri fellowship, did you find a good amount of overlap in training with neuropsych?
