BDD - referral help in Melbourne

Hi Facecoachers,

We recently held a workshop on screening for BDD patients and how to handle the delicate conversation of helping them.  

We can't fix the problem aesthetically if they are suffering from Body Dysmorphia Disorder.  The likelihood of a 'bad outcome' is high because their expectations can not be met.  

Dr Ben Buchanan spoke at our event and suggested we work with a referred Psych professional with these patients.

Here is his list of places we can refer in Melbourne when we know we can not perform an injection that will get a result.  These patients need your help and empathy.
