General Practitioners

• Primary Care
  For over twenty years, PPA has provided service to thousands of adults, children, families, couples and seniors. We are committed to the health and well-being of our patients. PPA combines psychiatry and psychology in both the assessment and the treatment of our clients. We also strongly believe in a team approach where the psychiatrist works with the psychotherapists under one roof. It is not uncommon for our medical, psychotherapy and counseling staff to collaborate during a patient's appointment to best meet their needs while always honoring their right to confidentiality. We prefer to coordinate care with the primary care physician with the patient‘s consent.
