What We Do

We are mental health specialists who provide mental health care in a holistic way. This means we provide traditional psychiatric care, like diagnostic evaluations and medication management services, but we don’t stop there! We pride ourselves on viewing and caring for you as a complete person.

At Excel Psychiatric Associates, we:

  1. Offer appointment slots that are longer than the industry standard so we can take time to listen to you and your unique life story.

  2. Educate you so you really understand your care and become a true partner in your mental-health care journey.

  3. Discuss various lifestyle changes and improvement strategies, different therapy types and modalities, and available medication options.

  4. Work together as a team to come up with a treatment plan that best fits you.

Dr. Chepke is the most caring, knowledgeable doctor I have ever met. My stepson and I have seen him jointly for almost three years now. My stepson has seen many doctors in his 28 years and Dr. Chepke is his favorite. His office used to be two minutes from our house. After he moved, the ride to get my stepson picked up and to his office takes about an hour and a half, but we love Dr. Chepke and it’s well worth the effort to get there. We’re so blessed to have found him!
