Home / About Dr. Sachs
Matthew Sachs, MD, MPH, MBA — practicing by secure video across Virginia and North Carolina, with the same physician from the first appointment onward.
Most psychiatric appointments are too short to be useful. Fifteen minutes is enough for a brief follow-up, but rarely a comprehensive evaluation. This practice was built the other way around: a first appointment long enough to take a genuine history, and follow-ups with the same physician who took it.
Dr. Sachs is board-certified in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and in Adult Psychiatry, which means he treats across the lifespan — a parent and a teenager can both be seen by the same physician, and the developmental picture is never guesswork.
You select appointment times through our scheduling system, from whatever is open — no phone tag with an office, no waiting for someone to call you back with a slot that does not work. Pick the time that fits your week.
He also serves as community faculty at Eastern Virginia Medical School, where he teaches psychiatric residents. Teaching keeps a clinician honest: it requires you to explain why you are doing what you are doing.
