Getting to know Dr. Ryan Poch
I earned my medical degree from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Lubbock and completed psychiatry residency training in Rural Adult Psychiatry at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler. I have practiced in both inpatient and outpatient settings and co-founded an independent adult outpatient psychiatry practice in East Texas. Before medicine, I earned a B.S. in Economics from Brigham Young University and worked in information technology, experiences that continue to shape my analytical, systems-oriented approach to clinical problem-solving.
I take a structured, patient-centered approach that emphasizes careful diagnosis and practical treatment planning. I explain the reasoning behind my recommendations in plain language, including potential benefits, risks, and alternatives, so patients can make informed decisions. I value shared decision-making, welcome questions and preferences, and consider the whole picture, including physical health, sleep, work, relationships, and social supports.
I begin with a thorough evaluation of psychiatric history, prior treatments and medication trials, medical history, substance use, and current stressors and supports. I consider medical conditions and medications that may contribute to symptoms and coordinate with other clinicians when helpful. Together, we develop an individualized plan with practical goals that may include medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and day-to-day strategies, then use follow-up visits to assess progress and adjust the plan step by step.
