As a psychiatrist in this role, you’ll be immersed in a thoughtfully structured clinical environment designed to support both exceptional care and professional satisfaction. The practice is anchored in extended appointment times—90 minutes for new patients and 30 minutes for follow-ups—allowing you to fully engage with each individual’s unique mental health needs. With an outpatient focus and optional inpatient consult work, you’ll tailor your schedule and clinical focus across adult, geriatric, and select adolescent populations.
You’ll see a diverse array of conditions, with approximately 80% of the caseload consisting of geriatric patients presenting with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, Parkinson’s-related psychiatric manifestations, cognitive decline, and dementia. Whether managing medication regimens or coordinating with in-house therapists, you’ll play a vital role in a collaborative care model. Opportunities for specialization in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) exist, along with consult-liaison (CL) psychiatry and teaching responsibilities tied to the ACGME-accredited residency program.
Integrated behavioral health services are a cornerstone of the practice. Working alongside social workers and psychologists, you’ll provide comprehensive care that addresses both the psychological and social aspects of patient health. This interdisciplinary approach ensures that patients receive individualized care aimed at returning them to their highest level of daily functioning.
While there are currently no formal research opportunities, the initiation of the residency program will open avenues for academic involvement and research pursuits, allowing you to contribute to the advancement of psychiatric knowledge and practice.
