Board-certified psychiatrist Rachel P. Ross, MD brings a George Washington University medical degree (1999) and Tulane University chief residency to her Bankers Hill practice at 1963 Fourth Avenue in downtown San Diego. Medication management protocols for depression, anxiety, OCD, and bipolar disorder generate complex prescription regimens that coordinate with specialty dispensaries including University Compounding Pharmacy for patient-specific formulations. Prior academic appointments at Tulane included Director of the Partial Hospitalization Program and Co-Director of the Psychiatry Residency Program, followed by clinical faculty status at UC San Diego after relocating to San Diego in 2007. The practice's clinical scope extends to women's psychiatric health and trauma-related conditions, drawing on subspecialty training that complements the primary care coordination available at Elm Street Family Health Center for patients requiring integrated medical-psychiatric treatment. Diagnostic workups incorporate structured clinical interviews with validated symptom inventories including the PHQ-9, GAD-7, and Y-BOCS to quantify baseline severity and calibrate pharmacotherapy titration across mood and anxiety spectrum disorders.
