Corsica River Mental Health Services Announces Dr. Jack Rosenblatt as New Medical Director
“I am honored to be joining the dedicated and hard-working staff at Corsica River Health,” Dr. Rosenblatt said. “My background and commitment to this organization allow me to uphold Corisca River’s quality of service to the communities we are priveleged to serve.”
After graduating from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Dr. Rosenblatt completed his psychiatric residency at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he met his wife, also a psychiatrist.. He then received additional training at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), where he spent five years as Clinical Associate and Staff Psychiatrist, performing original research and publishing his findings in major scientific and medical journals.
Dr. Rosenblatt began a private practice of psychiatry while at NIH, and has been a Board-certified private practitioner in psychiatric practice for more than thirty years. He specializes in the treatment of children, adolescents, and adults with depressive disorders, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and bipolar disorder. He was the founding editor of a highly respected, non-commercial literature review in psychopharmacology, and is regarded as an expert in the practice of evidence-based psychiatry and clinical pharmacology.
Among his children, now grown, are a doctor, a social worker, and a business executive. “My childhood role model was (and still is) Albert Schweitzer, who combined extraordinary service with expert medical knowledge in the hospital he founded in Africa, where he treated those in greatest need until his late eighties. A great man and a great doctor in the best sense.”
Dr. Rosenblatt enjoys “fishing small waters” on the Eastern Shore, a lifelong passion for “an old Florida bass stalker,” as he calls himself. He is also an avid dog lover and currently has a dog named “Zeus,” a 13-year-old whom he describes as “an old guy who gives a hundred percent because he still can.”
