Psychiatrist in Campinas with a total focus on private medical consultations.
A psychiatrist who is happy to share knowledge intensively, so that clients (patients and carers) develop the ability to understand the rationale and meaning of diagnosis and treatment.
Our clinic seeks to add a touch of refinement and elegance to the tireless ideal of providing medical consultations to the highest standard of service in biologically-based Clinical Psychiatry and Psychopharmacology for adults and the elderly. We know it's impossible to achieve it without a lot of commitment and persistence.
In his career as a psychiatrist, Dr. Petrus Raulino has always sought the best experience.
- Solid experience in private practice. More than 1,500 private patients seen in his private practice.
- Solid experience in psychiatric care with complex medical issues. More than 800 psychiatric consultations in general hospitals (similar to private consultations, but in emergency rooms, wards or ICUs in general hospitals).
- More than 20 years' experience in psychiatry.
- More than 25 years' experience in medicine.
The use of emails and social networks does not have the characteristics of a medical consultation. Interaction by these means does not have the dedicated time and the same wealth of detail as a medical consultation.
Therefore, they should not be considered means for practicing medicine, although they are useful tools.
In medical consultations, contact with the patient is direct, individual and in-depth.
In contrast, the use of emails and social media are activities that involve contact with many people at the same time. Especially for reference professionals.
Therefore, for the use of e-mails and social networks, Dr. Petrus Raulino maintains an extremely reliable team to support him on the front line of these activities. Often, it is someone from this team, and not Dr. Petrus Raulino, who will respond to interactions through these means.
This team is supervised directly by him, always following the doctor's instructions and respecting the rules of confidentiality and privacy. However, communication via email and social media is in no way a substitute for medical consultations.
In this way, Dr. Petrus Raulino, as a psychiatrist, frees up his time to do what he does best: devote himself to medical consultations and continually update his practice. expertise.
Conduct on prescriptions:
Dr. Petrus Raulino, as a psychiatrist, is a knowledge professional. His delivery is knowledge through medical consultation. His bond with patients is knowledge, not prescriptions. Most patients understand this.
As a general rule, Dr. Petrus Raulino does not write prescriptions outside of medical consultations.
To issue a prescription, the doctor must update the balance of benefits versus side effects of the medication, as well as the treatment schedule, and provide guidance. The medical consultation is the appropriate "space" to meet these objectives.
In other words, the prescription must necessarily be "backed up" by knowledge validated in an up-to-date consultation. The prescription must be understood as a consequence of the consultation, not as an end in itself.
Every prescription issued is scheduled for a specific time until the re-evaluation appointment.
The deadline for re-evaluation at a doctor's appointment is set at the end of each appointment. At this point, the client (patient or companion) should speak up if they have a request that differs from the stipulated deadline. This way, any doubts about the deadline can be clarified.
Doctors are also not allowed to issue prescriptions via telephone orders, as such orders are analogous to self-medication (as they are unilateral and have not been validated by a medical consultation to adjust or maintain the use of the medication).
Asking for a prescription to be renewed without a consultation is bad for the patient and the doctor.
For the patient, it's a flirtation with self-medication. People who ask their psychiatrist for automatic prescription renewals without a consultation, often for the convenience of a telephone request, seem to be unaware that medicines can be responsible for deaths or serious complications, especially if they are taken improperly by self-medication.

Following the global state of emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Council of Medicine and the Brazilian Psychiatric Association recognized the practice of Telemedicine.
Telemedicine is the practice of medicine through interactive remote medical care using technologies that are largely based on the Internet.
Telemedicine focused on psychiatry, also known as telepsychiatry, is a viable practice that has been exceptionally approved as a strategy for caring for patients and their families during the pandemic.
Telemedicine (including Telepsychiatry) takes place via videoconferencing, telephone or cell phone applications. The same degree of privacy and confidentiality as face-to-face medical consultations must be maintained. But clients (patients and companions) must be aware of the limitations and risks related to the computer and internet universe.
Telepsychiatric care is not compulsory, but rather optional for the psychiatrist - if he or she considers it safe for the person who will be receiving this type of care - and for people who feel comfortable and helped by this type of care.
For remote care (remote or online consultations), clients (patients and companions) must be aware that:
- remote care has limitations, such as the impossibility of a complete physical examination, although it is possible to carry out an inspection;
- the online consultation is punctual (strictly limited) and does not guarantee the right to be seen indefinitely or to be available to the doctor at other times not previously agreed by any means;
- the online consultation is for an individual, who must be in a quiet place that allows for confidentiality;
- the client (patient or companion) may not use the image or audio of this consultation without the express authorization of the doctor;
- for the doctor to be able to use and analyze them properly, the client (patient or companion) must provide ALL possible information, NOT omitting any information about their signs and symptoms;
- the accuracy of the information provided by the client (patient or companion) is necessary due to the absence of a face-to-face clinical assessment by the doctor;
- the patient may be asked to take photos of parts of their body, depending on the complaint, and the images will be filed in their medical records (for example, in the case of an adverse skin reaction due to the use of medication prescribed by the psychiatrist);
- it may be necessary to carry out additional tests for a better diagnosis;
- the patient may be referred, according to the doctor's assessment, to a health service;
- there may be any technical impossibility to carry out the consultation, such as an unstable internet connection, agreeing to the immediate rescheduling, on a day and time agreed by both parties;
- the use of e-mail or SMS as a way of communicating and sending information may be necessary and the client (patient or companion) must beware of the vulnerabilities of the election system in terms of the confidentiality of the information, and must be aware of these vulnerabilities and assume the resulting risks;
- the delivery of physical material relating to the request for examinations, reports or medical certificates to a carrier authorized by the client (patient or legal guardian) may be necessary, observing the need to protect all information, in accordance with the guidelines of the LGPD (General Data Protection Law) and other legal and ethical regulations;
- if there is a need to prescribe certain controlled drugs, it will not be possible to send them electronically, due to a specific ANVISA order on this matter.
