Talkiatry Chief Medical Officer and co-founder Dr. Georgia Gaveras, DO named to Modern Healthcare's 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives Class of 2025
NEW YORK, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Talkiatry, a leading provider of high-quality, in-network psychiatry and therapy services, is proud to announce that co-founder and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Georgia Gaveras, DO has been recognized by Modern Healthcare as one of the 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives for 2025. Detailed profiles of all the honorees are featured in the June 9, 2025 issue of Modern Healthcare's magazine and online at This program honors licensed clinicians in executive roles who are recognized by the senior editors of Modern Healthcare and selected for their exceptional achievements in driving innovation, improving outcomes, serving their communities, and demonstrating exemplary leadership both within and beyond their organizations. "Becoming a clinician doesn't automatically prepare one for a leadership role, helping to guide an organization or an industry. The 50 clinicians chosen this year as the most influential, some newcomers and some we have recognized previously, are having an oversized impact," said Mary Ellen Podmolik, editor-in-chief of Modern Healthcare. "Their work is benefiting their own teams in terms of clinical advancements and financial results and is leading to better patient outcomes." With more than 600 licensed psychiatrists and 150+ therapists treating children, adults, and seniors for conditions including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, OCD, and PTSD, Talkiatry has expanded to 47 states and reaches over 70% of commercially insured Americans through partnerships with more than 60 insurance providers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, Cigna, and Humana. As access has increased, Talkiatry's dedication to high-quality care continues to lead to positive patient outcomes. In peer-reviewed clinical findings, two out of three patients saw their anxiety symptoms drop below clinically significant levels, and a similar portion experienced the same improvement with depression. Notably, one out of three patients achieved full remission in under 15-weeks. Among those who did not reach these thresholds, the vast majority still reported measurable improvement. Talkiatry is a physician-led practice where quality care comes first. Clinicians have the autonomy to make the best decisions for their patients, supported by structured clinical leadership, peer collaboration, and continuous education. To deliver these outcomes, Talkiatry has built an environment that prioritizes clinician support and sustainability. All clinicians receive structured onboarding, access to ongoing clinical education, and support from dedicated teams that handle scheduling, billing, and credentialing. Talkiatry is a community of like-minded, mission-driven peers. Through clinical chats, mentorship, grand rounds, and peer case consultations, the organization fosters connection, knowledge sharing, and a sense of belonging. "This recognition is a testament to the vital work the Talkiatry team is doing to expand access to high quality mental health care, regardless of a patient's geography or circumstance. Being named one of Modern Healthcare's 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives reinforces the importance of our mission, and I am incredibly grateful to be part of a movement that is transforming the way mental health care is delivered in this country." - Dr. Georgia Gaveras, Co-Founder & Chief Medical Officer, Talkiatry.
