How to Refer a Patient
Contact Directly
Email office@hamedpsychiatry.com or call (929) 606-8994 with a brief description of the patient's presenting concerns and your contact information.
Patient Contacts the Practice
The patient can also reach out directly via the contact form at hamedpsychiatry.com. Mention your name as the referring provider so coordination can be established.
Collaborative Care
With the patient's written consent, I am happy to coordinate care with you — sharing clinical updates, treatment plans, and medication changes as appropriate.
What Referring Providers Can Expect
Thorough Evaluations
Initial evaluations are 60 minutes. Patients receive a structured clinical interview, diagnostic clarification, and a clear treatment plan — not a rushed 15-minute appointment.
Responsive Communication
I respond to provider inquiries within 1-2 business days. Coordination of care is taken seriously.
Conservative Prescribing
Medication management is evidence-based and conservative. I do not overprescribe. Patients are monitored closely and followed up regularly.
Clear Scope
I will refer back to you or to higher levels of care when clinically appropriate. I do not try to be everything to every patient.
Culturally Competent Care
Bilingual in English, Farsi, and Dari. Experienced with immigrant and multicultural communities, including Afghan and Persian patients.
Telehealth Statewide
Patients can be seen from anywhere in New York State. No transportation barriers. Same-week appointments often available.
