Dealing with mental illness or struggling with an addiction can be challenging for many of us. Having both can almost seem insurmountable. It can also be hard to ask for help, but if you are here you are taking an important step. I can work with you in dealing with these challenges. I am board-certified in both general and addiction psychiatry and provide treatment specifically tailored for each person. Through diagnostic assessment and clarification, medication management, psychotherapy, and other modalities, I can help build a treatment plan that works for you.
I completed Psychiatry Residency at the UCLA - San Fernando Valley Program. I then focused on Addiction Psychiatry through a Fellowship at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. My background is in Chemical Engineering where I received my degree from Columbia University. I completed medical school at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
I aim to provide you with a comprehensive diagnosis and flexible treatment plan. We can build a doctor-patient relationship within a compassionate and non-judgmental environment. Please take a look at www.drluzano.com, feel free to send me any questions, and I look forward to working with you.
