Dr. Wes Burgess

Welcome

Greetings. My name is Dr. Wes Burgess.

I am closing my practice on 2/23/2012 after seeing patients for over 25 years.

I will not be taking any new patients at this time, but I will provide one-time consultations, second opinions, and medication reviews for adults and adolescents until 2/23/2012. I cannot prescribe medications during one-time consultations, second opinions, or medication reviews.

Feel free to explore the information I have written for you on this site. For more information, check out the books I have written on Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Stress Reduction.

I provide diagnosis, medication evaluation, stress reduction solutions, information on health and nutrition, and modern brief psychotherapy. I make my office a safe, comfortable, and pleasant place for your appointments. My appointment service is available to make your appointment 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for your convenience. No matter what your current situation, I have probably seen something like it before and I will know what to do. My only goal is for you to have the life that you want and be able to enjoy it in complete health.

--------Wes Burgess, M.D.
