Karanjit S. Parihar, MD

As a consultation-liaison psychiatrist at NYU Langone, I am committed to the belief that healthcare is about nurturing both the mind and body. Psychiatry, my chosen field, allows me to form personal connections with my patients and guide them towards improved wellbeing.

My expertise is in treating patients with coexisting psychiatric and general medical conditions. I’ve dedicated my career to bridging the gap between psychiatry and medicine, offering consultations that ensure comprehensive and coordinated care. My credentials and years of experience enable me to create personalized treatment plans that foster better understanding and more effective outcomes.

My decision to pursue medicine was driven by a profound desire to help others. I was drawn to psychiatry as a specialty early in medical school, when I recognized the significance of mental health. As a member of NYU Langone, I collaborate with various medical and surgical teams, providing a seamless and coordinated care experience for my patients.

In my practice, I prioritize helping my patients proactively engage in their own healthcare and being readily accessible to my patients, cultivating trust and open communication. This approach is invaluable when discussing various treatment options and ensuring my patients feel comfortable and understood.
