Dr. Sanders has several years of experience in mental health care. This work began when he was as an undergraduate and worked as a nursing assistant for patients with severe dementia. He went on to earn an MD and PhD with his dissertation focusing on the role of specific chemical messengers in guiding brain development. After completing residency at The University of California, San Diego he was certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
Please note that Dr. Sanders does not prescribe stimulants (ie. Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse). Benzodiazepines are prescribed responsibly and very carefully (ie. Ativan, Valium, Xanax, Klonopin). These are typically provided only after safer options have been tried. When they are provided they are usually kept to a minimum.
