A fourth generation Memphian, Dr. Adam Chan returned home after completing his Bachelors of Science (B.S.) in Neuroscience & Behavioral Biology at Emory University in Atlanta, GA, and medical degree (M.D.) from East Tennessee State University (ETSU) Quillen College of Medicine in the beautiful foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. At the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, he completed both a general psychiatry residency and his child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship training, serving as the Chief Resident and Chief Fellow of Administration. He currently holds a Clinical Assistant Professor appointment in the UTHSC Department of Psychiatry and continues contributing on the local and national levels, having been inducted into two national medical honor societies: Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) and Gold Humanism Honor Society (GHHS).
As a board-certified psychiatrist, he understands that brain health is multifaceted and must be individualized to each person. Because of this, his clinical practice enjoys an empathetic approach with a wide “toolkit” of evidence-based psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, neuromodulation (TMS, ECT, VNS, Esketamine and Ketamine), and digital therapeutics (PRISM, EndeavorRx) to help patients of all ages heal and thrive. As Dr. Chan often says, “Healing can’t happen in a silo,” valuing the power of interconnection and the community. It is with this same spirit that he engages as a member of the American Psychiatric Association (APA), American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP), Tennessee Psychiatric Association (TPA), Tennessee Medical Association (TMA), Memphis Medical Society, and Clinical TMS Society (CTMSS). Dr. Chan is excited to team up so that we can help you and your loved ones thrive and be well.
