Ο Μπισμπίκος Βασίλειος είναι Ψυχίατρος και παρέχει ψυχιατρική φροντίδα αποκλειστικά κατ' οίκον, στην Αθήνα και την Αττική σε ενήλικες. Επισκέπτεται τον ασθενή στον δικό του χώρο, εκεί όπου νιώθει ασφαλής, με διακριτικότητα και απόλυτη εχεμύθεια.

Ολοκλήρωσε τις ιατρικές του σπουδές στο Πανεπιστήμιο του Καρόλου στην Πράγα και ειδικεύτηκε στην Ψυχιατρική και την Ψυχοθεραπεία στη Γερμανία, αποκτώντας κλινική εμπειρία και ως Επιμελητής. Συνδυάζει την επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένη προσέγγιση με την ουσιαστική ανθρώπινη κατανόηση.

Έχει ολοκληρώσει την θητεία του ως Επιμελητής σε Κέντρο Ημερήσιας Νοσηλείας με ευθύνη για την οργάνωση και τον συντονισμό των διασυνδεδεμένων Εξωτερικών Ιατρείων. Παράλληλα, είχε εκτεταμένη εμπειρία στη διαχείριση οξέων περιστατικών, καθώς συμμετείχε στο πρόγραμμα εφημεριών κλινικής με δυναμικότητα άνω των 100 κλινών, τόσο ως εφημερεύων ιατρός πρώτης γραμμής όσο και ως επιβλέπων ιατρός σε ετοιμότητα κλήσης.

Θεωρεί πως η εκτίμηση στο σπίτι προσφέρει πληρέστερη κλινική εικόνα και είναι ιδιαίτερα πολύτιμη για όσους δυσκολεύονται να μετακινηθούν, λόγω ηλικίας, περιορισμένης κινητικότητας ή της ίδιας της κατάστασης της ψυχικής υγείας.

Πιστεύει σε μια θεραπευτική σχέση εμπιστοσύνης, με σεβασμό στον χρόνο, την αξιοπρέπεια και τις ανάγκες του κάθε ανθρώπου.
