Our Patient Care Philosophy
Smile Psychiatry is a hybrid online/in-person clinic that is addressing two major issues in the psychiatry industry:
- long wait times
- low-quality visits
Our founder, psychiatrist Dr. Brian Berrett, recognized these trends during his training and set out to address these issues and improve the patient experience.
Low-quality patient visits to a psychiatrist have become quite common in the mental healthcare world. These visits are typically short visits that are focused on medications only. Smile Psychiatry has implemented a model that not only addresses the patient’s medication concerns, but also allows the provider and patient to explore the patient’s psychiatric condition through therapy. This results in providers seeing fewer patients per day, but typically engaging in longer visits with the patient.
Additionally, we ensure the highest quality of medical providers by hiring slowly and only accepting the quantity of patients that we have the capacity to provide world-class care to. This approach allows us to expand the vision Dr. Berrett started many years ago in a controlled manner, while keeping quality patient care at the center of everything we do.
Ultimately, you are at the center of everything Smile Psychiatry does. Here you will encounter people who are eager to help you overcome your psychiatric barriers. We give you the support you will need to navigate these challenges, overcome them, and achieve life satisfaction, purpose, and fulfillment.
