Who We See in San Angelo
Many of our San Angelo patients come from the surrounding ranching and oil-field communities, where the closest psychiatrist is a long drive and a lost workday away. Video visits from home, or from a phone in a parked truck, make ongoing care realistic. Isolation, financial stress from drought and commodity prices, and long hours are common threads.
We also see Angelo State University students, healthcare staff, and family members connected to Goodfellow Air Force Base who carry civilian insurance. TRICARE isn’t one of our in-network plans, so military families should check their coverage before booking.
What We Treat
Visits cover psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis and medication management for adults. Common reasons people book:
- Anxiety and panic attacks
- Depression, including postpartum depression
- PTSD and trauma and OCD
- Bipolar disorder and insomnia
- Medication management and prescriber transfers
- ESA letter evaluations in Texas
