Psychiatrist Kyra Samson, MD, treats patients through Kaiser Permanente in Allied Gardens, San Diego, from the 4647 Zion Avenue campus. Samson earned her Bachelor's from UC San Diego, her medical degree from UC Davis School of Medicine in 2002, and a Master's of Public Health from UCLA, assembling a three-university California credential set. She completed a transitional-year internship at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center from 2002 to 2003 and a psychiatry residency at the University of Maryland's Sheppard Pratt program from 2005 to 2008. Samson is board certified in Psychiatry and affiliated with Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center. Stress-related musculoskeletal conditions frequently accompany the anxiety and depression Samson treats, and the spinal adjustment and rehabilitation protocols at Chiropractic Center for Health and Human Potential in Allied Gardens address the somatic side of those presentations. Samson's published research includes co-authored studies on pediatricians' roles in developmental services and international comparisons of well-child care, reflecting her interest in the intersection of psychiatric assessment and primary care screening. She speaks English and Spanish, expanding access for bilingual patients in Allied Gardens and the surrounding 92120 communities. Samson's clinical volume is concentrated in anxiety, major depressive disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and pregnancy-related anxiety. Her MPH training adds a population-health perspective to individual prescribing decisions, particularly around social determinants that affect medication adherence in underserved populations. The Allied Gardens campus sits between Waring Road and the I-8 corridor. Metabolic side effects of psychiatric medication require ongoing monitoring, and the recovery and inflammation protocols at San Diego Cryotherapy in Allied Gardens address the physical wellness dimension that Samson's patients manage alongside psychiatric treatment. Samson's combined MD-MPH credential positions her to evaluate both clinical presentation and the social context that shapes psychiatric outcomes.
