More about Dr. Nidhi Goel

​

She is a dual board-certified physician and specializes in Adult and Geriatric Psychiatry.

​

Her experience in a busy academic center (Maimonides Medical Center) as a Director of Geriatric Psychiatry and Attending Physician in an inpatient unit has given her expertise in treating varied aspects of mental illnesses over the last few years.

​

"I teach and supervise resident doctors and medical students and it forces me to stay informed with the latest biological and therapeutic treatments for psychiatric illnesses. I have a unique opportunity of supervising and training Geriatric Medicine fellows which gives me an edge in treating mental illnesses with co-morbid medical illnesses. This gives me the ability to help consider and diagnose a possibility of medical cause responsible for presenting psychiatric symptoms, thereby ensuring comprehensive and accurate treatment." - Nidhi Goel, MD on being questioned about her core strengths and area of expertise in the world of Psychiatry.

​

She also adds - "a comprehensive assessment is required to see how the biological, psychological, and social issues in someone’s past and present are interacting and contributing in the presentation of psychiatric symptoms and once a diagnosis is established then only a tailored treatment plan is developed to provide psychopharmacological treatment and brief psychotherapy if needed to alleviate these symptoms."

​
