more about Dr. Smith...
I am originally from just outside Boston, Massachusetts. After spending 10 years in New York City, where I completed both my pre-medical studies and medical degree at Columbia University, I moved to Los Angeles for my psychiatry residency at USC. Following residency, I practiced psychiatry in Los Angeles for several years before relocating in Westlake Village in 2023, where I am happy to now call home.
Like you, I am more than just my career. Beyond my professional life, I am on a lifelong journey of personal evolution that I pursue in a variety of ways, including yoga, meditation, exercise, travel, music, and lots of laughter. Above all, I am deeply connected to the people I love and am committed to serving others in any way I can.
It's been an incredibly rewarding life, and I’m grateful to add CLEAR Ketamine + Psychiatry as another chapter of my story.
