Making An Appointment
Please call to schedule an appointment. Dr. Rootenberg will speak with you on the phone and discuss your symptoms and concerns. If you do not reach her in person, please leave a message with a few potential times for her to call you back as Dr. Rootenberg does not answer the phone when she is in session.
The first appointment is a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which takes about 75-90 minutes. At the end of the evaluation, Dr. Rootenberg will discuss treatment recommendations with you.
Your treatment will depend upon your particular needs and will include psychotherapy and possibly the prescription of medication. If there are medical issues, Dr. Rootenberg will collaborate with other physicians as needed, and with your consent.
Dr. Rootenberg believes that seeing a single clinician for your psychiatric treatment results in the best quality of care. As a result, she does not do medication management for patients in treatment with other therapists.
Follow-up appointments will be arranged and scheduled as needed.
Office hours are Monday through Friday by appointment.
Dr. Rootenberg’s practice values your privacy.
