Optimal health is more than the absence of disease. Optimal health comes from treating the underlying cause of a patient’s psychiatric condition.

Dr. Dorothy Kalyanapu, MD is an Adult and Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist. She combines both traditional psychopharmacology and natural therapies — eg, diet, exercise, nutritional supplements, and other complementary techniques — into a comprehensive treatment plan that is highly individualized for each patient’s psychiatric conditions. Believing that treating the underlying cause(s) of a patient's neuropsychiatric condition provides the best outcome, she strives to achieve optimal health, not just absence of disease, as much as possible.
