DC Primary Care Physicians

Meet Your Partner in Patient Outcomes

As a primary care physician, you’re on the front lines of identifying and managing your patients’ health concerns. However, when patients require care beyond what can be provided in a primary care setting, it’s crucial to have a trusted partner in mental health treatment.

Why Refer to an Interventional Psychiatrist?

Expertise in complex cases

Our team has extensive experience managing patients who have not responded to traditional psychiatric medications or psychotherapy.

Optimize medication management

Primary care physicians often have large caseloads. Here at WIP, our psychiatrists and nurse practitioners can offset patient complexity by managing the mental health needs of patients in the DC-Maryland-Virginia area.

Collaborative approach

We work closely with you, keeping you informed of your patient’s progress and integrating our care with your ongoing management.

Innovative treatment options

Our practice group is composed of seasoned clinicians who blend traditional medication strategies with evidence-based, rapid-acting treatments. From transformative options like Ketamine Intravenous Therapy, Esketamine Intranasal Therapy (Spravato), and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to accelerated TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), our range of interventions is designed to complement or even replace conventional approaches.

Improved patient outcomes

Our interventional treatments have shown rapid and significant improvements in symptoms, functioning, and quality of life for many patients. However, WIP isn’t just a clinic – it’s a beacon of hope for adults and children seeking effective, rapid solutions to mental health challenges.

Comprehensive support

We provide a full range of interventional psychiatry services, including diagnostic evaluations, psychotherapy, and advanced psychopharmacology.

By referring your patients to our practice, you can trust that they will receive the most advanced and carefully tailored medication management available. Our expertise in psychopharmacology, combined with our range of interventional treatments, allows us to provide comprehensive solutions for even the most challenging cases.
