is the said psychiatrist vegetarian/vegan?
Completely independent of this specific topic, if you would only believe a psychologist who presents you with a clinical opinion if they practice the same lifestyle choice as you, that speaks poorly to your grasp of the scientific method.
I've met so many doctors who are convinced avoiding meat is unhealthy that, yes, i would prefer to go to a doctor who is vegetarian. They would surely be more knowledgeable on the subject
personal convictions of doctors guide their "clinical opinion".
We also know that money too influences general "clinical opinion"
"independent of this specific topic"? Nah
Probably not
