Experienced, board certified psychiatrists utilizing the ability to visit and speak with patients at a time and place of their choosing, through video chat. I have been seeing my psychiatrist on Skypiatrist for almost 3 years now, after my former psychiatric care provider moved to FL during COVID. Leaving me with only a 5 minute monthly phone call, and relying on the USPS to deliver the paper prescriptions my doctor wrote, because he was old and did not want to switch to the automated, online prescription system, which would've saved him time and me the aggravation of not receiving prescriptions on time, and sometimes not at all. It was horrible. When I found Skypiatrist, I was skeptical. However, once I met with my doctor I felt so much better and more confident in the care I was being provided. Plus, if you do not have a separate talk therapist, they have a number of options through their service, which helps because then your two mental health care providers can see each other's notes and set a course of treatment accordingly. I cannot emphasize the ease of use, professionalism and knowledge of the providers, and their genuine care for your well-being. I hope I never have to move on from Skypiatrist, because I know I would not receive the same level care I do currently. Give them a try...It will be the best decision you have ever made. I know it was for me.

Very productive. Provider was perceptive and caring.
My doctor was thorough and really took the time to communicate effectively.
Awesome Dr. Buch is the best. Always goes above and beyond and I always get the best of care I have been under his care for several years and I feel that I have finally found a doctor that actually listens to me, and always finds a solution. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
The best and most efficient way to have an appointment. I would recommend this to everyone.
I was apprehensive about an online session, but it turned out great. Three visits and very satisfied.
We were able to get an appointment quickly. Dr. Tamirisa was very knowledgeable and spent a lot of time with us.
My doctor on Skypiatrist is the best. Coming from a state I just moved to and so didn't have a doctor, and all the doctors being backed up, was a real challenge until I found Skypiatrist. Excellent.
Everything was so easy and everybody was SO kind. I really wanted to speak with somebody fast and there was immediate availability. I was able to book an appointment with a provider based on his profile on the website which I found reassuring. The online platform was extremely easy to understand and to use, including how to launch the tele-health session. Email reminders and tips were very helpful but not overwhelming (no avalanche of reminders.) The psychiatrist (Dr Nagel) I spoke with was extremely patient and really LISTENED. I was a bit all over the place and agitated but he kept asking a few pointed questions here and there, taking lots of notes. His calm demeanor in itself was so reassuring but so were his feedback and advice. We discussed the possibility of medication but Dr Nagel didn't push for it, letting me take the lead, waiting patiently for me to go through my own thinking process out loud. I ended up asking for a prescription, which he provided at the lowest dose possible. I tried it but ended up not continuing which he was totally fine with at the next follow up appointment. I can't say enough good things about the quality of the care that I received from my doctor at Skypiatrist. He is a real person, a real human being, in addition to his expertise.
I'd highly recommend Skypiatrist, the doctors are amazing, appointment always on time . Dr Jamil is fantastic.

Love my doctor and the ease of a virtual visit
I love my doctor and it's very comfortable talking to him in my own home. I love Skypiatrist!
Finally a doctor who cares, asks the important questions, and gets me the meds I need. Not only that, but super affordable and Dr. Christina set me up with a great Rx delivery service. In short, my life has improved.
Friendly, efficient and thorough!
Fantastic
My psychiatrist Dr. Annie Chen has been amazing. She listens to what I have to say. She shows that she cares about my well being. I am very thankful for her.
Great service and Dr Paul is the best!

Fantastic
The process to register an appointment is super easy, esp after they upgraded their website. The virtual meeting setup is easy, just open your browser! Provider (Dr. Pan) is extremely caring! I feel connected with my Dr and feel great about the care I receive. Customer support is also friendly and easy to get a hold of (via email). Highly recommend!
Awesome Dr. Buch is the best. Always goes above and beyond and I always get the best of care I have been under his care for several years and I feel that I have finally found a doctor that actually listens to me, and always finds a solution. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
It took me forever to find a doctor that had availability in the city. And the ones that did have availability did not listen to me. I am so glad that I found Dr. Pursaud through Skypiatrist. She listened to me and really helped me make the right decisions on what meds work for me. It’s so convenient to be able to meet via telemedicine because like others, I’m a busy bee. She helped me not feel so alone and I’m so appreciative of her knowledge and support. I loved her so much that I recommended my husband to her and he loves her too! She very well saved us both. Great updates on the website, super user friendly and very easy to navigate.
I was apprehensive about an online session, but it turned out great. Three visits and very satisfied.
Nice experience
Dr. Persaud has been one of the best health care professionals I’ve had. She listens to all of my concerns and struggles and goes through every option to evaluate how we can improve the quality of my day to day life. She’s very responsive to any questions or emails I have and really works with me to make things as easy as possible. I would highly recommend her services!
I would like more counseling if possible
This is my first experience with a psychiatrist and I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised. Dr. Persaud is clearly knowledgeable but she speaks to you like a regular person. She respects your intelligence and she takes the time to understand your specific needs.
