Mental health care has changed dramatically in recent years. With the rise of secure video conferencing and greater awareness around mental health needs, more people than ever are turning to telepsychiatry as a convenient and effective alternative to in-office visits.
At Daniel Perry MD, we provide secure, HIPAA-compliant telepsychiatry services to adults across Georgia. Whether you live in Savannah, Atlanta, Augusta, or a rural community, virtual care makes it easier to access the trusted psychiatric support you deserve.
In this article, we’ll break down what telepsychiatry is, how it works, who it’s for, and how you can get started with your first virtual visit.
Telepsychiatry refers to the use of secure video technology to deliver psychiatric care remotely. Instead of visiting a clinic in person, patients connect with their psychiatrist using a computer, tablet, or smartphone from the comfort of their home.
All virtual visits at Daniel Perry MD are conducted through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, ensuring that your privacy and confidentiality are fully protected.
Telepsychiatry is an excellent fit for many types of patients, including:
At our practice, we work with adults across Georgia who want personalized, professional psychiatric support, without the need to commute or sit in a waiting room.
While not every psychiatric service is suitable for virtual delivery, many conditions are safely and effectively managed through telepsychiatry.
Some of the most common issues we treat through virtual appointments include:
If you're unsure whether your symptoms are a good fit for virtual care, Dr. Perry can help determine the best treatment setting during your consultation.
New and returning patients can request a virtual appointment online at https://spruce.care/danielperrymd or by calling our office at (912) 513-2888.
You’ll receive a secure intake form and any necessary releases to fill out before your appointment.
At the time of your visit, simply log into your secure link using your preferred device. Make sure you’re in a quiet, private space where you feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics.
Dr. Perry will review your symptoms, history, goals, and current medications. If needed, he’ll prescribe or adjust medications and recommend therapy or follow-up care.
We provide regular follow-ups via video to monitor progress, adjust treatment plans, and ensure continuity of care—all while keeping you connected and supported from anywhere in Georgia.
Telepsychiatry offers a number of advantages that make it a compelling option for modern mental health care.
No travel time, no waiting rooms, and no time off work. Access care from your home, office, or dorm room.
Virtual visits eliminate the need to sit in a public clinic or worry about running into someone you know.
Ideal for patients in remote parts of Georgia or those with mobility limitations or chronic health conditions.
Stay connected with your psychiatrist even if you move, travel frequently, or change schedules.
Studies show that telepsychiatry is just as effective as in-person care for many psychiatric conditions, including depression, anxiety, and ADHD.
While virtual care works well for many patients, there are a few situations where in-person evaluation may be recommended:
If in-person care is needed, we’ll provide appropriate referrals or schedule you for an office visit at our Savannah clinic.
Most private insurance plans, Medicare, and some Medicaid programs in Georgia cover telepsychiatry services. Coverage varies, so our team can assist with checking your benefits and confirming eligibility before your first visit.
We also offer self-pay options for patients without insurance or those preferring to avoid claims.
With over 5 years of experience serving patients in Savannah and throughout Georgia, Dr. Daniel Perry, MD, MPH provides expert psychiatric care with a compassionate, patient-first approach.
Whether you need ongoing medication management or a second opinion, Dr. Perry brings clinical expertise and a supportive mindset to every virtual visit.
