Donna Mazloomdoost, MD

“I believe that in order to provide good care, a provider must consider the entire picture. It is imperative to examine more than just a patient’s disorder or complaint. When deciding on a treatment plan for a patient, I bring them, and any important family members she chooses, into the discussion. We consider her other medical conditions, occupations that may impact treatment, her home life, availability of other caretakers if necessary, treatment goals, and any other important factors. Treatments are individualized to meet the expectations of the patient and her family.”
