I am a resident in psychiatry at an academic medical center. My blog posts describe patient encounters I have had in the course of my training, both past and present. Every effort has been made to protect the privacy of these individuals. Names and identifying features have been changed. If you believe you have been a patient of mine and have concerns about the effects of this blog on the privacy of your medical record, please feel free to post a comment and I will be happy to withdraw any offending material.
