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.
An average insurance-based doctor is required to hold 800 patients, or more!
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 2 days 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.
Insurance & ReimbursementPlease note that our clinic does not accept insurance. We are out-of-network.

Concierge Psychiatry on the Upper West Side
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 visit.
My office is at 140 West 71st Street — Bell #41 — half a block from the 72nd Street 1/2/3 stop. If you live or work near Lincoln Square or Columbus Circle, an appointment fits between the school run and the office, without crossing town.
As a private, out-of-network psychiatrist, my concierge model is a deliberate return to the kind of psychiatry supported by research. This model allows me time to understand you as a whole-person.

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 doctoral research was in cancer immunology — 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.

The first step is a conversation, not a commitment
A genuine relationship with a caring psychiatrist can make all the difference.
