Gordon Globus MD is a Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Philosophy of University of California Irvine. He is a Distinguished Life Fellow, American Psychiatric Association Board Certified in Psychiatry. I have maintained a half-time private practice of psychiatry in Newport Beach since 1992. I have a broad experience in psychiatry and when at UCI was at various times in charge of outpatient psychiatry, an inpatient program, and psychiatric consultation at UCI Medical Center. I provide consultation and treatment for a wide range of psychiatric problems including anxiety, depression, bipolar, psychiatric help, depersonalization, post-traumatic stress, mental health, and attention deficit disorder. I do not hesitate to refer if I think that another mental health professional has more relevant expertise. I do not typically work with patients under 18 or over 80 years or with dementia, but refer them to specialists in child, adolescent or geriatric psychiatry.I talk with a person, ask questions, and try to understand their problems in a collaborative way. The initial consultation usually lasts around 45 minutes. The great majority of the time I will be able to make a provisional diagnosis, formulate, explain and implement a treatment plan during the initial consultation.
