Our Services
Psychiatric care that puts you first.
Comprehensive evaluations and medication management.
At Waybridge, a psychiatric appointment is not a 15-minute medication check. Our psychiatric providers spend real time with you to understand your full picture, develop a thoughtful treatment plan, and adjust it as you progress.
How our psychiatric services work
Your journey begins with a comprehensive 60-minute diagnostic evaluation. Your provider will review your history, current symptoms, past treatments, and goals to develop a clear understanding of what you need.
From there, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include medication management, referrals to our other services like TMS or ketamine therapy, and coordination with your other healthcare providers.
Follow-up visits are designed to be thorough, not rushed. Your provider monitors your progress, adjusts medications as needed, and ensures you are getting the comprehensive support you deserve.
“Great psychiatric care starts with listening. We take the time to truly understand your story before recommending any treatment, because the right plan is the one built around you.”
Dr. Angela Shields, MD
Psychiatric Director, Waybridge Clinics
