I am an ABPN board certified psychiatrist with licenses to practice in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. I received my Bachelor of Arts from Columbia University, and completed medical school and residency training at Temple University. Prior to becoming a psychiatrist I trained in surgery. I am a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society and the American Psychiatric Association and a fellow of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia. I also teach a course on private practice psychiatry an supervise a resident at Temple University’s Psychiatry Residency Program.

Psychiatrists are medical professionals who can prescribe medicine and are also trained in psychotherapy. We have the ability to look at not only the psychological and social dimensions of individuals but also the biological. For patients who are interested in medication, I offer a personalized medicine approach to help you take control of your health.

In addition to the private clinical practice, I am Director and Partner of Court Clinicians, LLC, a company that offers forensic psychiatry services to the First Judicial District of Philadelphia. We perform over 2000 evaluations annually and have a relationship with the University of Pennsylvania’s Forensic Psychiatry Fellowship Program.
