In this leadership role, he oversees companies involved in residential and commercial real estate investing, holding, development, and management services. His professional path also includes founding an integrative psychiatry practice with locations in San Diego and Los Angeles. He served as its chief executive and president for nearly 10 years before dedicating his full attention to real estate leadership and business growth.
Dr. Bindal built much of his career in medicine as a board-certified psychiatrist and sleep specialist. During his years in clinical practice, he worked with patients using traditional forms of care, including medication management and counseling. He also offered treatment options such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation therapy and intranasal ketamine treatment. His approach focused on giving patients access to a range of care options, especially when they needed additional support beyond standard treatments.
Ankur Bindal became known for his work in brain stimulation, especially Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. His experience included treating former professional football players, working professionals, other physicians, underserved patients, and people from different parts of the world. This treatment is a non-invasive outpatient option that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. It is often used for patients with depression symptoms who have not found enough relief through antidepressant medications.
Dr. Ankur received multiple honors during his healthcare career, including recognition as a Diamond Circle Provider for high-volume Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation services. He also received leadership and corporation awards at a healthcare conference in 2023. In addition to being listed as a Top Doctor, the practice he founded was voted the best in San Diego by consumers in 2024 and 2025. Patient ratings also remained strong, reflecting trust, consistency, and a care model shaped around patient needs.
Dr. Bindal has held several professional roles beyond direct medical practice. His service included serving on healthcare committees, quality monitoring groups, and medication review teams, as well as professional leadership activities. He also received awards connected to residency achievement, diversity leadership, clinical psychopharmacology, and professional scholarship. In addition, he contributed as a speaker, panelist, and writer, sharing his experience in healthcare leadership, entrepreneurship, workplace environment, and employee happiness through conferences, media appearances, and published work.
Dr. Ankur Bindal earned his medical degree in India in 2003. He later completed graduate study in public health in Texas, with a focus on clinical research, biostatistics, and social and behavioral sciences. His training included family medicine, adult psychiatry, and a sleep medicine fellowship through a neurology department. He holds board certification and fellowship distinctions in his field. Outside his professional work, he supports schools, military affiliates, community groups, and health organizations, and spends time with his wife, daughter, and dog.
