Hey @Noels a thing that helped me was trying to get in to see a newly qualified dr ...who has recently moved on from being a psychiatry registrar.
In the hospital I go to there are some amazing young psych registrars .....they're not yet psychiatrists but close to it's and are getting practise to prepare them for consulting with patients.
I always keep an eye on the registrars and think "oh, that one will become a really great psychiatrist !"
If you could call any hospitals or clinics and ask if they have any new psychiatrists , maybe they will have more flexible availability ?
