Vice Chair For Clinical Operations & Professor
About Dimitry Davydow
I am Dr. Dimitry Davydow, a psychiatrist and currently serving as the Vice Chair for Clinical Operations in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Florida. My journey began with a bachelors and medical degree at the University of Missouri in Kansas City. Following that, I completed my internship and psychiatric residency at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
After spending time on the faculty of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Johns Hopkins, where I provided psychiatric consultation and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) services, I joined the faculty at the University of Washington (UW). At UW, I specialized in working with patients with psychotic and mood disorders, while also providing psychiatric consultation services to various patient populations.
Under the mentorship of the late Wayne Katon, MD, I completed a National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)-funded research fellowship program in primary care-psychiatry at UW. This journey culminated in obtaining a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree with an emphasis in health services from the UW School of Public Health. During my time at UW, I developed a multidisciplinary research program focusing on the bidirectional relationship of psychiatric disorders and cognitive impairment with functional outcomes and healthcare utilization among individuals with acute and chronic medical illnesses. This effort resulted in over 60 peer-reviewed research articles and three textbook chapters published.
In 2016, I took on the role of Medical Director of Behavioral Health services for CHI Franciscan, a large healthcare system in western Washington (WA) state. Subsequently, from 2019 through 2023, I served as a psychiatrist and Chief Medical Officer for Comprehensive Life Resources, the largest safety-net mental health service provider in Pierce County, WA.
Now, as part of the faculty at the University of Florida, I bring with me my passions for the development and implementation of mental health care services, teaching, mentoring, research and patient care. My clinical expertise lies in working with patients with psychotic and mood disorders, as well as individuals experiencing mental health challenges following critical illnesses.
Outside of my professional pursuits, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, indulging in reading, hiking, attending concerts, composing music and playing bass guitar.
