Abstract
Adult psychiatric clinics are frequently inefficient in the utilization of personnel. The "team" approach is of little value to the psychiatrist treating a patient; it is rarely used in private practice. Clinic growth spells diminished help to the individual patient. With increased funds available for expansion, it would be cruel to strive to treat the community and fail the individual patient. The patient needs the small clinic and its psychiatrist.
