Vaccines are safe, highly effective, and they work by training your immune system to respond to disease. This post breaks down why measles cases dropped dramatically after vaccination and why hepatitis B prevention matters—especially for kids—so you can make informed choices.
Dr. Bowman – Board Certified Psychiatrist
I am a board-certified psychiatrist with over eighteen years of clinical experience in Child & Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry, Addiction Medicine, and Correctional Psychiatry, who has worked within various team-based healthcare systems including Medication-Assisted Treatment and Withdrawal Management programs for addictions and caring for those with serious and chronic mental illness on an Assertive Community Treatment team. Prior to joining Atracare as a part-time clinical Psychiatrist, I had most recently been working as a staff Psychiatrist within the Veterans Health Administration for the past 7 years providing general and geriatric psychiatric care and addiction management. I am also currently working as a Behavioral Health Medical Director for Centene Corporation/ Delaware First Health Plan. I strive to listen carefully and work collaboratively; and I strive to pay attention to the details but also see the larger picture, while seeking to make a positive and meaningful impact in the mental health and functioning of my patients.
