Patient Reviews
Jun 27, 2016
His knowledge of psychiatry ranks among the best private practitioners I've seen. He oversees the acute care of emergency patients and is directly responsible for countless individual and walk-in patients from a diverse, under served community at one of Manhattan's best-known hospitals. There isn't much he hasn't seen. He is thoughtful, patient and open-minded, which means there isn't much he can't accurately diagnose, treat or fix.
