Medical Director and supervising psychiatrist at
IN Focus First Psychiatric Clinic

Dr Olaniyi Osuntokun, MD, is the Medical Director and Supervising Psychiatrist at IN Focus First Psychiatry, where he leads a highly specialized team dedicated to delivering precision psychiatric care. With over two decades of rigorous clinical experience, Dr Osuntokun holds the rare and distinguished credential of being double board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) in both Psychiatry and Neurology. This dual expertise allows him to bridge the critical gap between the structural, biological science of the nervous system and the behavioral complexities of mental health, providing patients with a truly comprehensive medical perspective. In his free time, Dr Osuntokun is a dedicated servant to both his patients and his country, serving as an officer in the U.S. Army Reserve prioritizing active duty soldiers and Veteran mental health.

At IN Focus First, Dr Osuntokun (NPI 1548375058) champions the “Psychiatry Simplified” philosophy. He firmly believes that while psychiatric science and neurobiology are inherently complex, the patient’s journey to healing should be accessible, highly empathetic, and free from the exhausting friction of traditional clinic wait times and rigid scheduling. Under his medical oversight, the practice provides thorough, sixty-minute to ninety-minute comprehensive psychiatric diagnostic evaluations, moving far beyond the superficial, fifteen-minute medication checks that dominate the current healthcare landscape.

Dr Osuntokun specializes in the meticulous assessment and treatment of complex, overlapping psychiatric conditions. Dr Osuntokun is familiar with Adult psychiatric evaluations and Adolescent ADHD, Bipolar Spectrum Disorders, treatment-Resistant Depression, anxiety, premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and trauma-informed care, including dedicated support for Veteran health. He has clinical understanding of how executive dysfunction and neurodivergence—particularly late-diagnosed ADHD in high-achieving adults and women with ADHD over the age of thirty—can masquerade as generalized anxiety, major depression, or chronic professional burnout. Dr Osuntokun recognizes that mental health cannot be effectively treated in a biological vacuum.

Furthermore, Dr Osuntokun is a leading regional expert in the specialized field of clinical deprescribing. He has extensive experience providing safe, medically supervised, and highly individualized tapering protocols for patients seeking to carefully reduce their psychiatric medication burden, utilizing his deep psychiatric and neurological insight to maintain optimal brain stability and mitigate withdrawal syndromes throughout the entire process.

Dr Osuntokun earned his foundational medical degree from the prestigious University of Ibadan College of Medicine, an institution globally recognized for its contributions to neurological research, before completing his medical internship and psychiatric residency at the Indiana University School of Medicine and Indiana University Hospital and Clinics.

His ongoing commitment to the Indiana healthcare ecosystem is extensive; in addition to his executive leadership at IN Focus First, he serves as an Associate Medical Director for GuideStar Eldercare, overseeing psychiatric care in long-term facilities, maintains active clinical affiliations with leading regional institutions, including Ascension St. Vincent Hospital and Lutheran Hospital of Indiana and serves as Medical Director at Sycamore Spring Hospital in Lafayette, Indiana.

A dedicated clinical thought leader and active researcher, Dr Osuntokun has authored peer-reviewed publications indexed in major medical databases on topics ranging from the epidemiology of major neurocognitive disorders to the building of medical team resilence. He is a fully verified medical provider on Doximity and maintains a highly rated clinical profile on Healthgrades.
