Getting to know Dr. David Schwartz
Dr. Schwartz is a board-certified Staff Psychiatrist at Talkiatry. He earned his Doctor of Medicine from the University of Medicine and Health Sciences. He completed his residency in General Psychiatry at Bergen Regional Medical Center (formerly Bergen New Bridge Medical Center) in Paramus, New Jersey, where he excelled in leadership and knowledge, becoming Chief Resident in just his third year at the busiest outpatient behavioral health clinic in New Jersey. Upon completing his third year, he became Chief Academic Resident of his program, allowing him to share his expertise with younger psychiatrists in training.
After residency, Dr. Schwartz completed a fellowship in Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry at the prestigious Mount Sinai Health System in New York City, primarily based at the Mount Sinai Beth Israel location. This subspecialty, also known as psychosomatic medicine, focuses on the care of patients with comorbid psychiatric and general medical conditions. It involves advancing medical science, education, and healthcare provision for medically ill and complex patients.
Using his training, Dr. Schwartz applies his extensive medication knowledge to treat a wide array of psychiatric disorders. Beyond medication management, he embraces a holistic approach to psychiatry, collaborating with patients to secure appropriate therapy services when clinically indicated.
During the initial interview, a thorough assessment is conducted, including medical and psychiatric history, current medications, and supplements before any medication is prescribed.
Dr. Schwartz’s interests, informed by his expertise in psychiatry and consultation-liaison psychiatry, include depression, anxiety, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive and related disorders, transgender patients on hormone therapies, and post-surgical transition care.

More information on payments and coverage
Because we accept insurance, we can reduce out-of-pocket expenses and still offer high-quality care. You may not have any cost related to your visit with us, depending upon your insurance plan. Most patients pay a small copay per visit, subject to any deductible or coinsurance that your health plan has. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services determines appropriate billing guidelines. These guidelines depend on the length of the visit and the complexity and severity of your diagnosis. For this reason, we need to wait until after the visit for the final determination. We then submit the claim to your insurance company. The charges are calculated based upon pre-negotiated prices with your insurance company. Your insurance company will then determine what amount, if any, is your responsibility per your insurance plan.
