Brief Intro

I grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio and went to college at Amherst College in Massachusetts. I attended the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, graduating in 1985, and then had a residency in psychiatry at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. Since then I have worked in private practice. I see patients in my offices and in several geriatric long-term care facilities (nursing homes). I have served on Advisory Panels for pharmaceutical companies and have served as a spokesman for the National Institute of Mental Health. Prior to attending medical school I worked in health-care administration and management consulting. I chose medicine because of the opportunity to serve others. During medical school I thought of becoming a neurologist or family practitioner, but decided to go into psychiatry because I came to appreciate that emotional pain and mental dysfunction can be more debilitating and more difficult to overcome or adjust to than many physical ailments.
