His approach is rooted in the belief that mental health care should be as unique as the individual receiving it.
Conservative Management
A thoughtful, evidence-based approach to medication that prioritizes safety and long-term stability.
Holistic Perspective
Evaluating psychiatric needs within the context of your overall medical history and lifestyle factors.
Provider-Led Continuity
Consistent care from a single provider who understands your journey and treatment history.

"I believe in a conservative, evidence-based approach to medication management that treats the unique medical and psychiatric needs of each person as a whole, rather than just a collection of symptoms."
Philosophy
Outside the Office
Shad grew up in the mid west with his family and often working on his uncles farm. Eventually moved to Utah now Shad finds balance and perspective in Utah’s rugged landscapes. When he isn’t at Premier Psychiatry, he is likely camping, in his garden, skiing, or spending time with his family. These moments of quiet reflection and natural exploration deeply inform the calm, grounded presence he brings to his clinical work, helping him advocate for his patients’ holistic well-being.
