Psychiatrist

A provider who thrives at the intersection of clinical best practice, innovative care models and the latest technology, caring for complex patients is your north star. Curious and inventive,  you ask the questions that lead us beyond the status quo, and take great pride in being part of an organization that is moving the needle for SMI care. If you are excited to work side by side with a dedicated, compassionate interdisciplinary team who are building the center of excellence for SMI care, we would love to hear from you!

In alignment with Amae’s holistic wrap-around care model, you will co-manage a panel of complex members through behavioral health assessments, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, treatment planning, clinical treatment, medication management, and follow up planning. Working within a collaborative and shared decision making model, you will have the opportunity to partner with clinical staff, peer specialists, primary care providers and community partners. A patient advocate, you will help members navigate the health and social services systems in Los Altos and work closely with patients to address problems and answer questions, gather and provide information and advice, connecting patients to resources and the community.
