I graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University and am board-certified in psychiatry. My background in medicine is diverse; I have also been an emergency physician. It is my professional conviction that one can live a meaningful and fulfilling life only through addressing the health of both the mind and the body. Thus, effective psychiatry must assess all aspects of a patient's condition.
Because of trends in reimbursement, currently patients often see an MD for medication and a non-MD for therapy. This split treatment is too often suboptimal, especially since the two caregivers can rarely confer. By contrast, I seek to provide the appropriate medication treatments as well as the necessary psychotherapy for an integrated approach.
Certainly, patients who prefer split treatments are always welcome for psychopharmacological care. My approach is validated, collaborative, thorough, and respectful. My goal is to improve the patient's life with integrated treatment grounded on a strong therapeutic alliance of empathy and insight. One must care about the patient in order to care for the patient.
