Dr. Sunny Kang, MD, FRCPC, is a Royal College–certified psychiatrist providing virtual outpatient psychiatric care to adults in Calgary and the surrounding areas. Appointments are by secure video (telephone if needed); appointment links are sent to patients by email. Patients must be physically located in Alberta during their appointment.
Care is goal-directed — I work on the issue your patient identifies, with the aim of resolving it where that's possible and reducing its impact where it isn't. Once we reach that point, your patient is discharged back to your care with a clear written maintenance plan.
This is an adult psychiatric practice. In my final year of residency I chose child and adolescent electives, as I have a particular interest in transition-age care — which is why patients 16 and older are welcome.
Assessment and treatment of the presenting issue until it is resolved or well managed, then discharge back to you with a maintenance plan
A one-time assessment and opinion while you retain management (indicate on the referral form)
Not exhaustive. If a patient doesn't fit neatly, or you're not sure, send the referral anyway — in most cases I can help, and if I can't, I will tell you why.
Appointments are by secure video from home — no app to install, no travel. Your patient will receive their appointment link and intake materials by email after booking. Care is collaborative and goal-directed: we work on what matters most to your patient, and once things are resolved or well managed they return to you with a clear plan.
