As a psychiatrist for 27 years, I am honored that the American Psychiatric Association has appointed me to a “Fellowship” status. The criteria for this award is a history of psychiatric contribution to teaching, research, and clinical care. For those of you familiar with my work, this is additional affirmation that I have maintained my professional skills and contribution to the field. For those of you not familiar with my work, I invite you to visit my website which enumerates my research and publications. In addition to my teaching chief residents in psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, research publications, and pre-publication peer review, I continue to see patients my full-time practice. I look forward to attending the convocation ceremony in May in New York City.
