Atlanta Weekend Psychiatry is an alternative to traditional psychiatric and counseling practices in Atlanta. If you are tired of, or unable to take time out of your day during regular business hours to receive treatment from a traditional psychiatrist, we may have the solution for you.

Our practice is available on weekends, which you will find more convenient to your needs, whether they be additional privacy, or simply unresolvable scheduling conflicts.

All treatment is performed by our licensed, board certified physician, Dr. Ross F. Grumet. He has been in practice for more than 30 years and has experience in dealing with a wide variety of psychiatric conditions including difficult cases.
