About Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry, SC

Psychiatry is a unique specialty among medical specialists in that both psychosocial and biological factors need to be integrated in formulating the diagnosis and treatment planning. Subjective experiences, interpersonal processes, and self-awareness are aspects that must not be overlooked. Psychiatric conditions take a toll not only on sufferers themselves, but also on families, caregivers, and society as a whole. Prevention, treatment, management, and rehabilitation of these conditions are central to comprehensive health care. Child Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry SC strive to provide the highest level of clinical care to all patients and their families.

The field of Psychiatry and Neurology has made remarkable advances over the past 10 years alone. New treatment modalities which are evidenced based have been medically proven to help persons with mental illness.
