What Others Are Saying About Stephen Gilman, M.D. And His Addiction Treatment Approach
|
"I worked quite closely with Dr. Gilman at Hazelden
New York for a number of years. I was an alcoholism counselor and he was our Medical Director. He has an excellent "bedside"
manner. He seems to care about his patients and that comes across in his empathetic style. He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in addiction and mental disorders. The
humble, humane and extremely knowledgeable way he comes across is a breath of fresh air in the field of psychiatry. I highly
recommend him as an addiction specialist."
- Bill Armstrong, Addiction Counselor (CASAC)
New York, New York

"Most psychiatrists just spend 15 minutes or so with you, prescribe
some medications and then seem to rush you out of there office. Heck, many can barely even communicate clearly -- a tremendous
frustration when looking for a psychiatrist for my patients. Dr. Gilman is a welcome surprise -- doing "one stop" treatment
with psychotherapy and prescribing meds. All the patients I send him give him great reviews and sent him their friends and
family members. But, I do have to admit, I am a bit jealous that he can get such good results with patients that have failed
treatment with other physicians and therapists."
- Adalberto Morales, MSW, CASAC
Director of Substance Abuse Services, NYC Dept. of
Education

"As program manager for Physician Education and Training services on
substance abuse at the Hazelden Foundation, a critical aspect of my responsibility has been to retain only the best in the
addiction treatment field. I regularly use Dr. Gilman because he is highly adept at reaching other physicians who are naive at
addiction treatment. He has made a huge difference in helping these other doctors understand addiction treatment. In fact,
many have contacted him to refer their difficult patients struggling with addiction."
- Rick Barnett, Psy.D., CASAC (psychologist)
New York, New York

"I've known and worked with Stephen Gilman, M.D. for the last 7
years. He is an outstanding, expert and knowledgeable Addiction Psychiatrist who really knows what works to get his patients
addiction free - in the least time possible and as comfortably as possible. Dr. Gilman is who I turn to first when I need a
psychiatrist expert in treating addicted patients."

"I was so appreciative to be specially invited to attend Dr. Gilman's
addiction recovery seminar. It has given me so many "WOW" insights into the different subtle layers and levels of addiction.
He was so well prepared and informative. He motivated me to make changes not only in the treatment of our patients -- but in
my own personal life too!"

"Dr. Gilman and I have worked together in our psychiatric evaluation
center for the last 8 years. We have many psychiatrists here, but I always call him first to evaluate substance abusing
patients. He's smart and an expert physician who gets right to the heart of the addiction problems. On top of this, he has a
warm sense of humor and he always makes everyone around him feels comfortable and at ease. Its a shame he is not working here
more often -- our lose, his private patient's gain!"

"As the new patient evaluation specialist at a major substance abuse
facility in NYC, I often come across difficult, complicated, and hard to reach chemically dependent patients. Many have
additional psychological problems beyond just their alcohol and drug abuse. I find that Dr. Gilman easily diagnosis these
people, and then rapidly develops an individualized, comprehensive treatment strategy. I'm confident in his ability to deliver
outstanding service to all patients he treats. I recommend him without reservation or hesitation."
