Oxford Psychological Medicine Centre
Oxford Psychological Medicine is a leading centre for the integration of psychiatry and psychology into medical care.
Clinical service
Our integrated approach offers a new model of medical care. In Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, psychiatrists and psychologists work as members of medical teams.
Integrating a psychological medicine clinician into a medical team helps the whole team to provide care for all the patient's needs: their mental health as well as their physical health.
