At the end of the visit, we will come together to determine what plan works best for you as well as schedule our next visit together.

Dr. Dweik was excellent. I wasn't really sure where to begin or what was relevant, but he was able to guide the session with clear and specific questions that ended up leading to a productive place. I would recommend this office for someone who is starting out on their mental health journey

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Dweik. I was diagnosed with Bipolar illness when I was eighteen years old, that was forty years ago. I have seen over ten Psychiatrists since then, some good, so not so good.
Before meeting Dr Dweik every Psychiatrist hardly gave me the time of day, the appointments were always a fast 15 minutes, I never felt that they listened to my concerns, they were more interested in upping the medications.
Dr Dweik is the first doctor that really listens to me and takes the approach of the whole person and what is going on in your life. The appointments always give us the time have a real conversation.
I am on the least amount of medication I've ever been on, my life is better than it as ever been. I attribute that to an excellent care team lead by Dr Dweik.
If you are serious about your mental health and want to get your life back on track, you will be lucky to have Dr Dweik as your doctor.
