About Foundation Wellness

Integrated care for weight, hormones, and mental wellness. Built by a physician who saw what medicine was missing.

Who We Are

Foundation Medical Group is a multi-state outpatient psychiatry and addiction medicine practice. We treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, and opioid and alcohol use disorders, and we run advanced therapies like TMS, Spravato, ketamine, qEEG brain mapping, and GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing alongside everyday psychiatric and recovery care.

We’ve been doing this work since 2014. What started as a Richmond, Virginia clinic focused on getting people into Suboxone-based recovery has grown into a four-state network serving Virginia, Utah, Georgia, and Texas. The model hasn’t changed: same-day or next-day appointments, evidence-based care, and providers who actually answer the phone.

What We Treat

We’re built around the idea that mental health and addiction recovery belong in the same building, with the same team. Most of our patients see us for psychiatric medication management, talk therapy, or medication-assisted treatment with Suboxone, buprenorphine, or Vivitrol. A growing portion come specifically for advanced therapies like TMS or Spravato, often after years of medication trials that didn’t land.

Across all four clinics, the playbook covers:

  • Psychiatric evaluation and medication management
  • Talk therapy and telehealth
  • Medication-assisted treatment for opioid and alcohol use disorders
  • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for depression and OCD
  • Spravato (esketamine) for treatment-resistant depression
  • Ketamine therapy for mood disorders and PTSD
  • qEEG brain mapping
  • GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing

The Richmond, Virginia flagship runs the full stack. Our Utah, Georgia, and Texas clinics carry the core psychiatry and recovery services, with brain mapping and additional advanced therapies rolling out as each location grows.

The Four-Clinic Network

Richmond, Virginia is the flagship. It’s where we built the model and where the largest provider team works. Patients come in from across the Commonwealth for TMS, Spravato, ketamine, psychiatry, and Suboxone-based recovery, all under one roof.

American Fork, Utah is our Wasatch Front home. It sits next door to Foundation Wellness, our sister clinic, so Utah patients get integrated mental health and addiction recovery care across both practices.

Decatur, Georgia brings medication-assisted recovery and psychiatric care to metro Atlanta. Most new patients are seen the same day they call.

Dallas, Texas runs the FMG model out of North Dallas, with telehealth available statewide and same-day evaluations for new patients.

How We Work

A few things set the practice apart, and they’re worth being plain about.

First, we open the calendar fast. New patients are usually seen within 24 to 48 hours, often the same day. If you’re in withdrawal, we treat that as the urgent thing it is and get you in front of a buprenorphine-licensed clinician as quickly as we can.

Second, we keep advanced therapies in-house instead of outsourcing them. If your psychiatrist thinks TMS or Spravato could help, the technician who runs it works down the hall. That continuity matters for outcomes and it matters for how you feel about the care.

Third, we take the insurance complexity off your plate. Most major commercial plans, Medicare, Tricare, and state Medicaid in Virginia, Utah, Georgia, and Texas are accepted. Our care coordinators verify benefits and chase prior authorizations before your first visit so you don’t have to.

Who Refers to Us

A meaningful share of our patients arrive through a referring provider, primary care physician, therapist, hospital, or behavioral health program. We make that easy. Referrals come in by fax, secure message, EMR, or phone, and we close the loop with a clinical note back to the referring clinician within a week of evaluation.

We also run partner programs that embed FMG psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and CLIA-certified diagnostics directly into PHP, IOP, residential, and crisis programs. If you run a behavioral health program and need clinical coverage, our partner team handles credentialing, malpractice, and EMR integration in the background.

Get In Touch

Call (800) 983-1974, send a message through the contact form, or walk into any of our four clinics. Whichever way you reach us first, we get back to you the same day.

Meet the Founder

Built by a Physician Who Saw What Was Missing

Your weight, your hormones, your mental health... they aren't three separate problems. They're one conversation about the same body. And when you treat them together, that's when real change happens.

Dr. Timothy Bunton, Founder

After years in psychiatry and pain medicine, Dr. Bunton kept seeing the same pattern: patients bouncing between specialists, each one treating a piece without seeing the whole picture. Weight programs that ignored hormones. Hormone clinics that ignored mental health. Nobody connecting the dots.

Foundation Wellness was built to fix that. One team, one plan, built around how your body actually works instead of how insurance companies organize it. It's integrated medicine designed for people who are tired of getting the runaround.
