| Topic: Ask the Doctor |
| In the course of any meeting of the Support Group, a variety of questions come up, aboutmedication or other issues. Our June presenter -- one of the world's top mental health professionals, psychiatrist and psycho pharmacologist Ivan Goldberg -- fielded any ADD -related query tossed in his direction. |
| Dr. Goldberg earned a
medical degree at NYU, and did his psychiatric residency at what is now
New York Presbyterian Hospital. He served on the faculty of Columbia
medical school for many years while maintaining a private practice in
Manhattan. Dr. Goldberg has written Questions & Answers About Depression & Its Treatment (Charles, 1993), and has co-authored the Jasper-Goldberg Adult ADD Screening Examination. He is the founder and editor of a website "Dr. Ivan's Depression Central." (www.psycom.net/depression.central.htm) offering a huge amount of information. |
