While this new chapter opens, it means another has closed. The past 4 years of Residency have prepared me for this moment and provided me every opportunity needed to open the door to UCLA. I cannot begin to thank the Attendings and support staff at Banner University Medical Center-Phoenix for their mentoring, teaching, and collegiality.
I enjoyed working with wonderful patients and their families (some for as long as three years in the outpatient clinic!) Thank you for putting your trust into me and I hope you all continue to achieve your goals and improve/maintain your mental health and wellness.
If anyone reading this blog is thinking about where to do their Psychiatry Residency, I would strongly encourage you to consider Banner. Dr. McLoone, Dr. Waxman and all the other attendings are second to none. The leadership staff of Graduate Medical Education, lead by Dr. Leibowitz, has created a utopia of medical education in the desert. I offer my sincerest gratitude and a Tip of My Cap to all of the Attendings and colleagues I worked with over the past 4 years at Banner.

This blog is approaching its two year anniversary. I started it as a way to educate the public about Mental Health and Addiction and by doing so I hoped to decrease the stigma associated with Mental Illness. I am convinced that sharing knowledge, resources and the latest research will ultimately increase the hope of those who are suffering. This is necessary in order for health (both physical and mental) and wellness to improve.
My goal is to continue sharing insights, the milestones of my career and timely and useful research related to Mental Health, Wellness and Addiction. I hope you will continue to read my blog and, if you find it useful, please share it with your family and friends.
I am always looking to answer your questions and for ideas for new posts... please comment below or email and I will do my best to answer your questions in future blog posts!
Thank you for taking the time to find my blog. Whether you are suffering from Mental Illness, know someone who is, or are just interested in learning more, I hope the resources and articles I post get you to where you need to be.
Stay Tuned!

When looking for a psychiatrist, you can choose between in-network & out-of-network providers. An in-network psychiatrist is often the default choice, including out-of-network psychiatrists can help expand your search & chances of getting the help you need
Many patients assume it will be easier and less expensive to see an in-network psychiatrist, but quickly learned that’s often not the case. If you’re looking for a psychiatrist, here are some reasons not limiting your search to your insurance network.
Many of those who suffer from addiction, including nearly 20% of all alcoholics, do not fit the stereotypical image of an addict — they are able to maintain their job, they may have spouses and children, and often enjoy busy social lives.
