What is Psychiatry?
Psychiatry is a branch of medicine focused on diagnosing, treating, and preventing mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. Psychiatrists are medical doctors (M.D. or D.O.) trained to assess both the mental and physical aspects of psychological conditions. Using a combination of diagnostic tools and therapies, they develop personalized treatment plans to address each patient’s unique needs.
How Our Psychiatrists Help
