Getting to know Dr. Simbiat Adighije

Dr. Simbiat Adighije, PMHNP, MBBS, PhD affectionately known as Dr. Sim is a distinguished psychiatric and mental health expert with more than 18 years of clinical experience. She specializes in Adult ADHD, anxiety disorders, mood disorders (including major depressive disorder and bipolar disorders), perinatal psychiatry, and the complex management of comorbid mental health conditions. As a board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and a trained physician, Dr. Sim brings a rare depth of expertise that integrates medical, psychiatric, and public health perspectives to deliver exceptional, evidence-based care. Dr. Sim founded and serves as CEO of Conscientia Health, a pioneering global telepsychiatry practice that has revolutionized mental healthcare by prioritizing accessibility, innovation, and patient outcomes. What started as a personal mission has evolved into a thriving, patient-centered organization serving thousands of individuals across all 50 U.S. states and multiple countries internationally. Driven by the profound grief following the loss of her mother, Dr. Sim deepened her specialization in grief and bereavement while channeling that experience into a commitment to compassionate, holistic healing. This tragedy not only shaped her empathy but also fueled her vision to eliminate barriers to timely, high-quality mental health services—gaps she witnessed firsthand in traditional systems. Under Dr. Sim's leadership, Conscientia Health has achieved remarkable clinical success, including an extraordinarily low hospitalization rate of less than 0.1% (approximately 1 in 1,000 patients) in recent years. This statistic reflects the practice's effectiveness in early intervention, personalized stabilization, and ongoing support that prevents escalation to crisis levels. Conscientia Health has been named the “Best Psychiatrist” practice based on outstanding patient ratings and reviews on Google. Let me help with your wellness journey. :)

My first appointment with Dr. Adighije went so well! I was immediately impressed by how thorough she was in her initial interview and how she managed to cover so much without making me feel rushed. You can tell she actually cares about helping people feel better. She seems really intelligent and knowledgeable. I'm really happy with her first course of action to fix my medication and I left the appointment feeling very heard.

First and foremost, Dr. Simbiat and the rest of Conscientia MD are AWESOME. After booking my appointment on ZocDoc they made the rest of the process effortless for me and did it all in a timely manner. Dr. Sim got me in the day of booking an appointment and spent a good hour getting to know me as a new patient and help me with what I was there for. She made it very easy to talk to. Prior to my appointment her office called me and made sure my insurance worked and was updated in the system so I didn’t have to worry about it at the time of the appointment. They were very hands on leading up the appointment and even after calling and checking to make sure everything went well. Dr. Sim and her team even went out of their way to call the pharmacy when there were some technical problems and handled it for me so I wouldn’t have to worry. Definitely recommend them! They provided great customer service and I am very happy to have her as my doctor and her team helping me along the way!

Excellent Doc and very easy to talk to. I highly recommend Dr. Sim - she has a waiting period which I'd say is totally worth it. I have been taking different kinds of antidepressants for many years and none worked for me until Dr. Sim helped me find the best combination. Thank you to her team of patient front desk staff as well.
If I could do it again I would chose Dr. Sim as my psychiatrist over and over again. I have tried many doctors and multiplied medications that didn’t work for me and upon my first try with Dr. Sim, I am already feeling better and still is. I’m grateful I found her.
The staff is extremely helpful, and I found that my provider Dr. Simbiat O. Was extremely attentive, supportive and positive and was always working to find the best solution for me based on my discussion. She is very encouraging and a very good listener, and I hope in the future if I ever had to switch providers they can live up to her standards.
Dr. Simbiat was 20 minutes late for my appointment, which was inconvenient because I had a later obligation. Once she saw me, she asked me questions to evaluate me, but finished the appointment prematurely. When she ended, she informed me that my insurance only covers 20 minutes with her each session, so that I should find another doctor. I would’ve appreciated to have been warned at the beginning of the session or in the waiting room, instead of having my time wasted. Clearly, she just wanted my copay and to charge my insurance.

Dr. Simbiat has a true calling for this. I’m mostly impressed with her knowledge of my diagnosis and her teaching me about it thoroughly. I am happy I found her.
After seeing Dr. Sim for over almost 2 years, I can confidently say that she is the best doctor I have ever had. She listens to what I have to say and I don’t feel rushed. My current medications have also been healing and I am pleased. Thank you.
Great experience. Will definitely recommend!!
Dr. Simbiat has been very helpful. She is available and Telepsychiatry has been a huge convenience and fits my lifestyle. She makes me feel comfortable and she’s been great.
I was very comfortable talking to Dr Simbiat from the commencement. Because of this openness, she quickly generated the true picture of my situation and administered the appropriate treatment. I am already feeling far different from the way I initially felt and I consider myself, lucky to have such a professional in my time of need. To those in need of this kind of help, my word to you is this. Dr simbiat is the way to go!
ConscientiaMD is amazing. Staff is really friendly, helpful and communicative. My emails are responded to on time. I have been seeing a psychiatrist for more than 10 years and i can say this is one of the best experiences i have had so far. Dr. Sim is compassionate. She listens and talks to you. She hears your concerns and works with you not just hand you a prescription like most do and say goodbye. I look forward to my visits with her. The patient portal is also quite helpful i can reach her anytime even if it takes sometime to respond because i know they’re busy i'm confident she received my messages. Highly recommended practice.
Dr. Sim is both personable and professional. She listens to you and takes an unbiased approach in giving an explanation. She is so thorough that I often hear her teachings in my head as I go about my week. The practice itself is well-organized and the receptionists are super helpful. My visits are the highlight of my week.
Dr Sim is incredibly thorough and goes beyond to talk to you about your mental health and well-being (while being able to prescribe medication too) rather than just prescribing you medication and ending the session in 5 minutes like other psychiatrists do.
Dr. Sim is the best in approaching to her patients and makes them feel comfortable during appointments. She is very knowledgeable and confident of the positives results after every treatment
Actually cares about your wellbeing.
Dr. Sim has been an amazing and patient psychiatrist I have not been an easy patient. She has helped me with medications and with different breathing techniques. She is always available and is very trustworthy. Whenever I need to make a quick appointment she is always there to see me. I would recommend her to anyone. I have seen my fair share of bad psychiatrists. Thankfully I finally found a good one
I can’t say enough about Dr. Sim! From our first interaction she made me feel like it was okay for me not to be okay with all the stressors and thing happening at once. Truly felt like I was talking to a true friend! Really am grateful that God put her in my path....
On the multiple occasions that I've visited Dr. Sim, I can say that she's very approachable and receptive. She strategically pinpoints issues, which leads to effective problem solving. A session with Dr. Sim is very worthwhile.
My visit was meaningful. Dr. Sim was very attentive, patient, explained to me my treatment plans/symptoms to expect and answered all my questions and concerns. She is knowledgeable and I will recommend her to anyone seeking providers who truly cares about their patients.
