Professional statement

Oyewole Ogunnaike is a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) who cares for patients of all ages. He is culturally aware and has extensive experience in diverse settings, including acute inpatient care at behavioral and mental health hospitals, rehabilitation centers, addiction treatment facilities, nursing homes, and telehealth platforms.

The services offered include psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis, ADHD assessment using QbTest, and medication management for various mental health conditions such as mood/bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety/panic disorders, ADHD, OCD (including eating disorders, skin-picking, and hoarding), PTSD/trauma, alcohol use disorder, anger issues, insomnia, and psychosis.

Pharmacogenetic testing is available for patients who have not experienced significant improvement after trying multiple psychotropic medications. This testing helps reveal how a person's genetics influence their response to medication, facilitating personalized, safer, and more effective treatment options.

His current services are available to adolescents, adults, and seniors who need medication management. Oyewole incorporates motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and inspirational techniques into his treatment.

Message to clients

Generally, life can be challenging when managing mental health issues, and it becomes even more difficult without a provider who listens, focuses on your needs, respects your preferences, and offers expert guidance to develop an effective treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

Drawing from my hands-on, one-on-one experience with patients in clinical settings, I have realized that patients' voices are vital in their treatment, which encourages adherence and positive outcomes. My approach aims to provide exceptional, consistent, effective, and stable care that enhances my patients' daily functioning.

Additionally, I ensure my patients have quick access to their prescriptions when needed and receive prompt responses to their concerns or questions about their treatment, giving their care the highest priority.
