Introducing Myself

I am one of the highly qualified and an expert Psychiatry – Addiction Psychiatry and Geriatric Psychiatry specialist with an invaluable experience of over 18 years. My residence is in Bern, Bern, Switzerland. I can fluently communicate with you in English, German, and Arabic. I will be happy to assist you via video and audio online medical consultation.

I support patients with a wide range of mental health and psychiatric conditions, including substance use and addiction disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic illnesses, and cognitive and behavioral concerns related to aging. I have extensive experience in acute and emergency psychiatry, consultation-liaison psychiatry, and geriatric mental health, providing structured assessments, treatment planning, and long-term follow-up care.

I am a board-certified Consultant Psychiatrist with specialization in psychiatry, psychotherapy, addiction medicine, and geriatric psychiatry, having trained and practiced in accredited hospitals across Germany and Switzerland. My professional background includes senior consultant roles at university hospitals, leadership as a department head, and multidisciplinary collaboration in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I am known for my thorough evaluations, evidence-based treatment approaches, and culturally sensitive care.

You can book a consultation with me through the Dr. Galen platform, where you can expect a confidential, respectful, and patient-centered experience. During our consultation, I take time to understand your concerns in depth, explain diagnoses and treatment options clearly, and work collaboratively with you to develop a personalized and sustainable care plan. If you are seeking experienced psychiatric support with professionalism and compassion, I am here to help.
