Meet Dr. Gajiev

Meet Dr. Elchin Gajiev

Hello, I'm Dr. Elchin Gajiev, and I'm honored to serve as your psychiatrist.

I have dedicated my career to providing compassionate, patient-centered care that empowers individuals to achieve lasting well-being.

As a Board Certified Physician in Psychiatry and Neurology, I take an integrative approach, blending the latest advancements in psychiatry with a whole-person perspective that respects the connection between physical, emotional, and mental health.

While I focus on medication management, I strongly advocate for therapy and collaborate closely with psychologists, psychotherapists, and counselors to enhance the long-term effectiveness of treatment. My aim is to create a thoughtful, personalized care plan that aligns with each of my patients' unique needs.

As a multicultural provider, I understand the significant role cultural background plays in mental health and strive to offer care that is both inclusive and individualized. I am fluent in English and Russian and welcome patients from diverse backgrounds.

What Patients Have to Say

I first met Dr. Gajiev 12-13 years ago, after a quite traumatic experience. He helped me go through it as painless and smoothly as possible and wouldn't let me give up I was healed. Years later, after my mom died, I fell into a deep depression and to survive, I knew who to go visit. Dr. Gajiev didn't disappoint, he approached my grief delicately and professionally. A few months later I was pulled out of darkness, even thought the pain of loss never goes away, I found a strength to go back on with my life. To this day Dr. Gajiev keeps me sane and on track. If you ever feel like there is no tomorrow, you know who to go visit. I know — I do.
