F. David Russek, MD
As an experienced practitioner of psychiatry, I have treated many patients for depression, anxiety, and a variety of other psychiatric symptoms with medicine and supportive psychotherapy. Also, I have employed interpersonal psychotherapy to help patients manage relationship and work-related problems, and numerous other personal concerns. Finally, I have engaged many of my patients in mindfulness-informed psychotherapy by recommending the 8 week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Program (MBSR) or the 8 week Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy Program (MBCT) to supplement our work together. Both of these programs are now established in mainstream medical practice and are contributing an increasing number of research papers to clinical psychological science. They have been proven to be effective in treating depression, anxiety, panic, pain, and stress. Calling upon my own positive and prog

Dr Russek is about as wonderful a doctor as can be. I misunderstood him about the forms that I had to fill out that he sent me by email (which should've been filled out beforehand), and he just provided me with a copy and let me fill them out.
The actual session was great too. He was totally professional, but still friendly and easy to talk to. I can't recommend him enough.

Dr. Russek spent more than an hour with me on my first visit. He carefully reviewed my issues and we talked about potential treatment options. Dr. Russek was very kind and congenial. I can recommend him without reservation.

Great initial visit with Dr Russek. We had a good conversation and discussed the right next steps for me. He's clearly well-qualified in his field, and I felt totally comfortable speaking with him. He has very flexible appointment times (I saw him on a saturday night, which I booked same day). Recommend.

Dr. Russek is an amazing doctor. He made me feel comfortable immediately. He has this ability to make you feel like "this is the person I needed, he's the one who will make me all better, because from the moment you make contact with him he gives you that undivided attention. He immediately developes a plan for you.

First time working with a Psychiatrist, and was rather nervous. Dr. Russek put my nerves to ease immediately with his calm and warm demeanor. Really enjoyed talking to him, and made a lot of progress towards my goals.

Dr Russek is truly a kind, highly intelligent, and thorough psychiatrist! I had just relocated to New York from Illinois and was trying to schedule appointments with my new doctors however my insurance had not yet been activated. Dr. Russek understood my financial situation as well as the urgency for an appointment for prescription refills, etc related to my condition.
He did everything in his power to help me including detailed over-the-phone consultations/ discussions regarding my condition and simplifying NY's Health Insurance marketplace (Very different and much harder to navigate than Illinois!)
Thank you Dr. Russek for your time, your concern, and your constant communication with me!!!!
