Sukumar Rao MD - About Me
Dr. Sukumar Rao is a highly trained psychiatrist in Lower Manhattan specializing in both talk therapy and medication management.
Hello, I’m Dr. Rao,
and I’m a psychiatrist in Lower Manhattan. I offer talk therapy and if needed, I can prescribe medication. I have studied and trained at Columbia and Cornell Universities, and I am a faculty physician at New York University Medical Center.
Patients often come to me when they go through a difficult period in life. They may find themselves stuck, not making progress toward goals, or repeating unhealthy patterns. Together, we can begin to understand and change those things that keep you from feeling your best and help you thrive once again.
