Overview
Our psychiatry providers seek to learn about an individual's specific needs, symptoms, problems, and strengths. Together with the individual, they build a treatment plan matching the patient’s needs.
Our approach
In person, Video and Telephone visits are available.
We find that most patients prefer to receive all their care in their primary care clinic. Because of our dedication to patient experience M Health Fairview designed integrated psychiatric services within primary care. Individuals are referred to the Collaborative Care Psychiatry Service (CCPS) by their primary care provider. CCPS providers will typically see patients for 2-5 visits.

The treatment plan and recommendations are shared with the individual’s primary care provider.
