"Hi, I am Dr. Martin Fakiel. I am Board Certified in General and Forensic Psychiatry and have been practicing for more than 25 years. During this time, I have had the opportunity to help patients from all walks of life, suffering from a broad range of psychological problems, in outpatient and inpatient settings. In this age of quick fixes and rushed treatment, I take pride in spending ample time with my patients in order to perform a thorough evaluation and to answer all questions about the proposed treatment plan."

"The practice of Psychiatry is truly one of the last bastions in modern medicine that allows the practitioner to 'connect' with the patient, and one where the value of the patient's input is not underestimated. Understanding the impact of one's life experiences, and the interaction with a person''biology and temperament is an art that few have the opportunity to practice regularly. A careful evaluation can reveal several areas of focus for medication / therapy during the treatment of the patient."
