Weekdays 8 am - 8 pm

Bridgeport families work tirelessly to build better lives, whether you're managing multiple jobs, commuting 30 minutes each way to work, or caring for children and aging parents under the same roof. Mental health challenges don't wait for convenient moments, and neither should quality psychiatric care. Our integrated approach ensures you can access treatment without draining your savings, missing work, or navigating complicated referral systems alone.
Comprehensive depression care using evidence-based medication and supportive therapy, scheduled around your work commitments.
Complete anxiety treatment, including panic attacks, chronic worry, and stress-related conditions, with evening appointment availability.
Thorough adult ADHD evaluation and treatment planning to improve focus, organization, and daily functioning.
Integrated substance use treatment addresses both addiction and underlying mental health conditions.
Expert psychiatric medication coordination with your primary care team, preventing dangerous drug interactions with existing treatments.
Unlike standalone mental health practices across Fairfield County, DOCS Medical provides Bridgeport's only psychiatric care integrated within a complete medical network.
| Your Needs | DOCS Medical Bridgeport | Traditional Psychiatrists |
|---|---|---|
| Medicaid Acceptance | We accept HUSKY Health, Medicare, Medicaid, and all major insurance plans. Transparent self-pay rates available. | Many refuse Medicaid patients entirely or maintain long waitlists for state insurance. |
| Quick Access to Treatment | Same-day to 1-week appointments available, getting you help when you need it most. | Typical 2–6 week delays. Many practices are closed to new patients completely. |
| True Medical Coordination | Your psychiatrist accesses your complete medical records and collaborates with your primary doctor through integrated systems. | Separate practices require you to coordinate your own care, leading to gaps in treatment. |
| Evening Appointments | Weekday hours until 8PM accommodate work schedules, so you don't lose income for appointments. | Standard daytime hours force you to miss work and lose wages. |
| Bilingual Care | Spanish-speaking services are available for Bridgeport's Hispanic community (44.6% of residents). | Limited bilingual options create communication barriers to quality care. |
| Emergency Mental Health Support | Direct connection to DOCS urgent care, where providers access your psychiatric history and current medications. | Sent to hospital ERs where no one knows your treatment plan or history. |
Bridgeport's working families need psychiatric care that removes barriers, rather than creating them. DOCS Medical is the only provider delivering true healthcare integration, making mental health treatment accessible regardless of your insurance, work schedule, or primary language.
