text: schizophrenia? does anyone know if there are any great specialists/programs for schizophrenics? i live in the chicagoland area. i don't know if you qualify, but being a veteran the v.a.m.c. in north chicago has a decent program.since most private hospitals have cut back on their mental health facility's, the v.a.still treat's patients. the university of michigan, because it has an affiliation with the v.a in ann arbor, treats the disorder.
