Getting to know Dr. Timothy Kaatman

I became interested in psychiatry early on while studying psychology in college. From my early experiences in medical training, it became clear to me that I had a natural ability to listen and provide empathetic care for my patients. I believe in using evidence-based medicine and working collaboratively with patients toward a common goal. From living and working across the country, I have gained a diverse perspective and want to create a comfortable and professional relationship with patients. Providing education and counseling regarding psychiatric treatment is an important aspect of the field and I strive to accomplish it in every visit. Completing my Adult Psychiatry training at the University of Kansas Medical Center, I am interested in a range of psychiatric conditions. Primary interests include Depressive and Anxiety Disorders, as well as specific concerns within the LGBTQ community. Throughout my training I have been consistently told that my unique ability to make a patient comfortable and heard is one of my greatest strengths. I am offering medication management appointments, and am excited to work with my patients toward a healthier future.

    Wow! Emily the Physician that I saw was wonderful and one of the best workers in Mental Health that I have interacted with. This clinic will take you seriously about your concerns and have a 'game plan' or actions to take! I really loved how empathetic, caring, and understanding she was as well as her responsiveness to treatment. I just felt very validated and I appreciated so much her course for treatment. I have trauma, and she completely understood my opposition to Cognitive Behavorial therapy and medication---she said something I have been waiting to hear, that I should have a more targeted and specialized therapy for specifically trauma issues. So thank you Emily and thank you to the clinic!

    Appointment started on time and was a very pleasant experience. The Doctor was very thorough and listened to all my questions and concerns regarding treatments and medication. The appointment did not feel rushed like I’ve experienced with most medical professionals in the past.

    WOW - Mental health is always hard to deal with! Finding a doctor who does not say "just go for a walk" to cure your extreme anxiety seems almost impossible these days. I switched to Dr. Kaatman truly because of his reviews online. I am here to say that the reviews are true! I FEEL HEARD, I feel important, I feel that he truly does love his job and cares for patients. I have never had a psych doctor spend more than 10-15 minutes getting to know me. He truly cared about all areas of my life. I really appreciate how open, non-judgmental, and welcoming he was. We did a video visit over a link provided by his office. I am really grateful to have met this doctor!

    I had seen another psychiatrist previously and had a very negative experience. It's a very vulnerable situation, and I was very hesitant to see another psychiatrist. But within minutes, Dr. Kaatman made me feel very heard; he listened to me speak, without judgment, and asked proper questions, and created a very comfortable environment in which I was able to openly and honestly share my personal experience. He also was very educated, and I was able to have all my questions answered; I definitely would recommend seeing him.
