I have practiced psychiatry since 1977 and am the founder and CEO of Psychiatric Associates of Southwest Florida. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Biology at Yale University and a medical degree at Downstate Medical Center College of Medicine in Brooklyn, NY. I then completed a residency in psychiatry at the University of Florida, where I served as Chief Resident and Faculty Member. I am a Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and am board certified in Psychiatry by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. My current special interests focus on the use of Genomics to aid in the determination of the most efficacious way to utilize medications like Ketamine as well as the use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Theta-Burst Stimulation (TBS) in the treatment of refractory depressions and other psychiatric illnesses. I regularly treat my patients using emerging therapies that are based on pioneering discoveries about the brain.
