Psychiatry in Manhattan
Therapy & meds with the same physician
I'm your partner, not just a provider.
Therapy and medication management with a single psychiatrist is the ‘gold standard’ of mental healthcare. That’s why I provide therapy and prescribing in one office.
As a private, out-of-network psychiatrist, my clinical model is a deliberate return to the kind of psychiatry supported by research. This allows me the time I need to understand you as a whole-person.

How I Practice
Concierge care offers personalized support
Time is the most important part of our relationship.
As an out-of-network provider, I am not contracted with any insurance company.
Insurance plans prevent psychiatrists from providing therapy.
My concierge practice revolves around the research-proven combination of therapy & psychopharmacology.
My concierge practice is restricted to 200 total patients.
We have time to get to know each other, through the ups and downs. You have direct access to myself and my office when you need it.
When you need a refill before international travel, we can help with that.
Maybe you need a last minute appointment before a big board meeting.
I have the flexibility necessary to support patients with demanding careers and responsibilities.
About the Practice
About Dr. Kavin Fatehchand
A physician with the time to carry your whole story from one visit to the next.
I'm Dr. Kavin Fatehchand, MD, PhD. My PhD was years spent asking what actually drives a disease. I ask symptoms the same question: what's driving this, and why now? That kind of curiosity needs time — which is exactly what I built this practice to protect. Unhurried visits, and a less-is-more approach to prescribing, where we understand the drivers before adding anything.
I'm a queer, South Asian psychiatrist in New York, and I want you to know exactly who is sitting across from you. Representation is the first step — never an assumption about your story. Because you are more than a diagnosis.
