THE MEDICAL OFFICE OF

Psychiatry

For the past 34 years, my office based medical practice continues to focus on the treatment of emotional problems that either co-exist with or contribute to medical illness.

• Psychiatry is a subspecialty of Medicine.

• Many people believe Psychiatric care is not medical care.

• Most patients do not understand that a Psychiatrist is a fully trained Medical Doctor.

• I often hear the misconception that my medical training is less than other Medical Doctors.

• Patients are suprised to learn that my medical training is same as any Medical Doctor.

• I have treated many patients who avoided care for their emotional problems.

• When finally treated for their emotional distress, these patients are upset they suffered and struggled so long.

• Interestingly, the same patients become advocates of psychiatric treatment rejecting the notion that emotional care is a sign of weakness.
