The geriatric psychiatrist is a good ally when it's not clear whether the patient's problem is dementia, depression, or the complications of multiple physical illnesses in addition to dementia or depression.

--Julie Brandies, M.D.

Older adults have special physical, emotional, and social needs. Understanding this, the geriatric psychiatrist takes a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and treatment.

This includes listening and responding to the concerns of the older adult, helping families, and when necessary, working with other health care professionals to develop effective approaches to treatment.

Co-existing medical illnesses, medications, family issues, social concerns, and environmental issues are integrated into a comprehensive program of care. Call us at 713.850.0049 to learn how we can help.
