Getting to know Dr. Philip Wong
Hi there! I'm a board-certified psychiatrist providing virtual, evidence-based care to individuals across New York and New Jersey.
My journey into psychiatry began with a deep curiosity about the human experience — how we think, feel, struggle, and grow. I started my academic path at New York University and went on to complete medical school and residency in psychiatry at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, where I was trained in both medication management and psychotherapy.
In my practice, I blend medication, therapy, and lifestyle support in a deeply compassionate, individualized way. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, or just feeling overwhelmed, we'll work together to better understand your experience and create a treatment plan that's tailored to your goals and values.
Our first session will be a one-hour conversation where we explore your story in depth — your challenges, your hopes, and what healing might look like for you. Follow-up visits are typically 15 to 30 minutes, and treatment is always collaborative and responsive to your needs.

Dr. Wong helped me put into perspective that healing and growth aren’t always linear. He reminded me that setbacks don’t mean failure, but are a natural part of the process. That perspective has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders and has made me more patient and compassionate with myself.

I wish this wasn't the case, but I’ve had many doctors in the past who have overpromised and underdelivered, which left me feeling discouraged.
Dr. Wong, on the other hand, is refreshingly transparent. He’s upfront about what treatment can and can’t do, and he explains things clearly without giving false hope. That level of honesty has built back up my trust in this system and has helped me feel more confident in navigating this whole process.

I appreciate Dr. Wong's patience and holistic approach to psychiatry. He is a great listener, taking the time to learn about the patient as a whole beyond simple diagnoses and prescriptions. With Dr. Wong, I feel heard and supported. He demonstrates genuine care by involving patients in their treatment plans and ensuring they feel safe and empowered throughout the process.
I highly recommend Dr. Wong to anyone seeking a provider who integrates psychotherapy and psychiatry in a thoughtful, gender-affirming way.

Very much a down-to-earth physician.
Dr. Wong listens attentively, but he's still manage to balance professionalism with a sense of humor, bringing a refreshing lightness to sessions. Which I appreciate especially when it comes to the sometimes heavy conversations surrounding mental health.

I have had very positive experiences with Dr. Wong. He always seems genuinely curious to learn all about who I am like my story my background and how everything connects. What I appreciate the most is how he includes me as an active participant in shaping my treatment plan. He works collaboratively with me to find what truly fits my needs and my goals.

I was referred to Dr. Wong for a second opinion consultation and actually walked away establishing care with him for routine follow up. I felt truly heard and with a clearer path forward. His insight was thoughtful, grounded, and helped me better understand my options. I'd recommend him for anyone seeking a fresh perspective or some clarify with their mental health care.

Dr. Wong is quite wonderful. I felt truly nervous going into my first appointment, even if over camera. But he was a breath of fresh air and was able to make it a safe space for me to open up. I'm really happy (and honestly a bit surprised) with the compassion and care provided. Highly recommend this doc!
