Getting to know Douglas Watson

My name is Doug L. Watson, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, RN, and I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with three years of experience treating clients across the lifespan. While I’m trained to work with individuals of all ages, about 85% of my practice has been focused on pediatrics and adolescents—a population I’m truly passionate about serving. I see children as young as five years old up to ages 75 or higher if needed through Telehealth. I earned both my BSN and MSN from Indiana Wesleyan University, completing my graduate degree in October 2022.

Good experience
Verified patientVideo visit
My visit with Dr Watson was excellent. I was a bit disappointed I had to fill out all the same docs I had already done on ZocDoc again, but that’s pretty normal unfortunately. I give the doc and my visit 5 stars for sure. I had an issue with a med that was prescribed and had to contact them and ask for a change - they were great and got it fixed for me no problem. Very grateful
