With over 25 years of experience in traditional practice, veterans facilities, and
institutional settings, Dr. Krassner has spent his career focused on individualized
treatment strategies. A specialist in psychopharmacology, he works with treatments for
patients managing depression, anxiety, and ADHD.

Born and raised in Southern California, Dr. Krassner earned his BA in English from UC
Davis and his MD from the University of Rochester in New York. Throughout his career,
he’s worked in diverse settings, including the Department of Veterans Affairs,
community health centers, and prison populations.

“I have been exposed to a wide range of diagnoses and medical histories,” he says. “It
has forced me to be more flexible and creative regarding treatment options.” He
believes “no two cases are alike, even if the diagnosis is the same.”

While his practice focuses on medication management, he works in conjunction with
therapists to ensure complete care. “The vast majority of the people I see want to try
meds first,” he says. He maintains up-to-date knowledge of emerging treatments like
ketamine and TMS. 

Dr. Krassner started working with telemedicine in 2020 and sees it as “a boon to the
field,” noting that “patients who formerly had difficulty getting to appointments, either for
logistic reasons or psychiatric impediments, now have an opportunity to access quality
care from their homes.”

He enjoys music, literature, baseball, and chess outside his practice.
