In my many years on the job, I’ve often heard that the hardest part of seeing a psychiatrist is making that first appointment and showing up. Once you’re here, it gets much easier. Many patients have told me that coming in and starting to talk through everything is not nearly as difficult as they first expected. My hope is that we can communicate openly and collaborate on what the best options are for treatment.

Early in my medical education, I found that no matter what kind of help I provided for patients, it seemed to be of limited benefit if their mental health was not addressed. My background spans everything from internal medicine and primary care to neurology and aerospace medicine. This breadth of experience helps me provide more comprehensive treatment. I want my patients to know that I genuinely care about them, listen, and value their experience and input as we work together in a trusting relationship. I find so much satisfaction in helping patients through the process of recovering from mental illness.
