Practice Information

Skypiatrist is a physician-owned and operated telepsychiatry practice providing comprehensive psychiatric care to patients throughout New York, the tri-state area and other participating states. Our team includes board-certified psychiatrists, therapists, and specialists who treat the full range of psychiatric conditions including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, reproductive psychiatry, addictions, and other mental health concerns. While our practice focuses primarily on medication management, we also offer psychotherapy services and work collaboratively to provide integrated care.

Unlike many behavioral health practices, we exclusively employ medical doctors (MDs and DOs) as our prescribing clinicians. We do not utilize nurse practitioners or physician assistants, allowing patients direct access to physicians with extensive medical and psychiatric training. All psychiatric evaluations and follow-ups are conducted by psychiatrists, ensuring that patients receive a comprehensive physician assessment from the start of treatment. Our psychiatrists represent a variety of specialties, including General Adult Psychiatry, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Geriatric Psychiatry, Addiction Psychiatry, and Reproductive Psychiatry.

We are committed to making high-quality psychiatric care accessible. Skypiatrist is in-network with many major insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medicare, Optum, Oscar, Oxford, and UnitedHealthcare plans. We also strive to minimize wait times, with appointments available within one week. Our goal is to provide expert, evidence-based psychiatric care that is both accessible and personalized to each patient's needs.

Scheduling an appointment is simple. Choose a psychiatrist and time, then provide your insurance and a credit card to keep on file. Your appointment will be confirmed once this is received. Please complete this information within 48 hours to avoid cancellation; if canceled, you can easily reschedule after submitting the required information.

Scheduling an appointment on our website is streamlined and takes just minutes. As a physician-owned and operated practice, we are committed to providing thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to each patient's needs, with specialists available across multiple psychiatric subspecialties and age groups.

How does payment work at your practice?

During the scheduling process, patients are asked to provide both insurance information and a credit card to keep on file. For patients using insurance, we will bill your insurance carrier and charge your card only for any applicable copayments, coinsurance, deductibles, or other patient responsibility amounts. For self-pay appointments, payment is collected at the time of booking. Our goal is to make the billing process as simple and transparent as possible so that you can focus on your care.
