    The method of fractional operators is employed to obtain the following useful result involving the Psi function: \[ \psi (a)-\psi (a- b)=\frac{\Gamma (a)}{\Gamma (b)}\sum^{\infty}_{n=0}(\frac{\Gamma (b+n)}{\quad n\Gamma (a+n)}),\quad Re(a)>Re(b)\geq 0. \] This result is shown to have interesting particular cases.
