Boutique Model

Every patient is seen exclusively by a board-certified physician psychiatrist — never a mid-level provider. MD and DO psychiatrists complete 12+ years of training including medical school, psychiatry residency, and often fellowship training.

A rarity in modern psychiatry. We prioritize in-person, face-to-face evaluations when clinically appropriate. Direct observation and comprehensive assessment allow for more accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

No months-long waitlists. Rapid access to specialist psychiatrists for discerning patients.

We operate on a deliberately low-volume model, allowing our doctors to spend real time understanding the full clinical picture, not rushing through symptoms. This approach ensures you receive the depth of care that complex presentations require.

The Highline Approach
If you've been disappointed by rushed appointments, algorithmic treatment, or care that doesn't feel personal, here's why Highline Psychiatry is different.
Why do you only use physician psychiatrists?
At Highline Psychiatry, every patient is seen exclusively by a board-certified physician psychiatrist, never a mid-level provider. MD and DO psychiatrists complete 12+ years of training including medical school, psychiatry residency, and often fellowship training. This depth of medical expertise is essential for complex diagnostic assessments, understanding medication interactions, and treating complicated cases. When psychiatric care requires medical judgment, nuanced differential diagnosis, and management of complex medication regimens, physician-level training is irreplaceable.
Why do you prioritize in-person evaluations?
Why do you see fewer patients than other practices?
Can you see children and adolescents?
Do you offer telehealth appointments?
Are you in-network with insurance?
How do I get started?
