Vilash Reddy, M.D. is a child, adolescent, adult psychiatrist who trained at the Washingtion University at St. Louis.

I take a straight forward approach to treatment. Mental health is complex and requires assessment in several areas such as: biological,psychological, social and developmental aspects of a persons life.

To do this we must be open and honest with one another and work together on your treatment goals.

Sometimes people think their younger life was "normal" After learning what/when creates you to become anxious, there are reasons why. I currently do not prescribe.
