Who Can Prescribe ADHD Medication in NJ and NY?
A primary care doctor can sometimes write an ADHD prescription, but the visit that actually works long term usually comes from someone who evaluates and manages ADHD as a core part of their practice.…
Psychiatric evaluation and medication management conducted directly in Russian, no interpreter needed. In person in Fort Lee, NJ, or by telehealth across New Jersey and New York.
Self-pay practice · Superbill provided for out-of-network reimbursement
Psychiatric care depends on precision: describing exactly how a symptom feels, exactly when it started, exactly what changed after a medication. That precision is hard enough in your first language and often genuinely difficult through an interpreter or in a second language you're not fully comfortable in. Appointments here can be conducted entirely in Russian, from the first evaluation through every follow-up.
An interpreter adds a layer between you and your provider, and nuance gets lost in that layer more often than people expect. Talking directly in Russian means describing your experience precisely the first time, not approximately.
Fort Lee and the surrounding Bergen County area have a substantial Russian-speaking population, and a meaningful share of patients here found this practice through word of mouth within that community. Speaking the language is part of it. Understanding the context people are coming from, sometimes including skepticism toward psychiatric care shaped by experience elsewhere, is the other part.
Everything available to English-speaking patients, the initial evaluation, ongoing medication management, coordination with a therapist, is available in Russian. This isn't a translated version of the practice, it's the same practice, conducted in your language.

Founder · Physician Assistant–Certified
Most psychiatric prescribing is trial-and-error. My background in
molecular biology — MSc from Hebrew University of Jerusalem, with
research at the Weizmann Institute and Mt Sinai — lets me think about
your case at the level of biological pathways, not just symptom
checklists. That means fewer wasted medication trials and a clearer
rationale for every decision.
Adults, adolescents, and children with anxiety, depression, ADHD,
bipolar disorder, OCD, eating disorders, and complex or treatment-
resistant cases. I work especially well with patients who've been let
down by rushed 15-minute medication checks elsewhere.
I speak English, Russian, and Hebrew, and I conduct appointments in whichever language you're most comfortable in. My background is in molecular and cellular biology, with research at the Weizmann Institute of Science and Mount Sinai, and I bring the same precision to prescribing regardless of what language the conversation happens in.

One of the most nicest, kindest and considerate doctors I met. He went over with me thoroughly on the documents and was generous enough to explain me everything that I asked. I think he is a real doctor of people and not just someone that's write prescriptions.
Michael is an amazing professional! He truly invests in his patients and provides care and feedback even during off hours. Although we have only been using his services for a short time, he already stands out as caring, knowledgeable, and confident in his approach. We plan to continue using his services and would absolutely recommend him to anyone!
Dr Michael Feldman is an amazing doctor. He prescribed the proper medication in the right dosage for me. He did this because he listens and asks very good questions. I highly recommend him
Michael Feldman is a wonderful and caring P.A. He always gives 100%. He listens attentively and provides many insights I would never thought of by myself. I find having him in my corner invaluable and I could not recommend him more highly. He's the best!
Michael Feldman is an excellent doctor! Very knowledgeable, attentive to patient's needs, caring, great bedside manners! Highly recommend!
I met Michael Feldman after years of search and trial and error. If you look for a professional who is invested in his patient's progress, research-oriented, with a deep understanding of the body-mind connection and a wholistic approach to treatment, look no further.
I had an exceptional experience with Dr. Feldman and truly feel fortunate to have found such a compassionate and knowledgeable psychiatrist for my teenager son. From the very first appointment, they took the time to listen without judgment and made me feel genuinely understood. Their explanations were clear, thoughtful, and grounded in evidence, which helped me feel confident in my treatment plan. The office staff is also friendly and efficient, making scheduling and follow‑ups easy. I highly recommend Dr. Feldman to anyone seeking a psychiatrist, especially for children.
My dad was recommended to see Dr. Feldman through his psychologist. He got him on track with medication and I finally feel like he’s himself again. Speaks Hebrew fluently as well which was a plus. Would recommend to anyone looking for an attentive and kind professional. Thank you!!
I was looking for support in working through my trauma. From the very first moment, I felt a comfortable atmosphere, even though the meetings were held via Zoom. It was clear that Mikhail was truly listening and delving into the problem. After each session, I felt empowered and calm. I definitely recommend Mikhail Feldman as an excellent specialist.
Great medication management! I was worried about the correct path to take to improve my mental health, and Michael really helped to properly explain my options and recommending the right medication. Highly recommend!
Dr. Feldman is very professional, intelligent, and highly knowledgeable. Appointments always run on time. After we switched to him, he immediately recognized that the previous diagnosis was incorrect. We’re very confident in his care and look forward to continuing with him.
I do not take insurance. Self-pay allows time for a thorough evaluation and coordinated follow-up.
Initial evaluation (up to 50 minutes): $350
Follow-up visit: $300
Discovery call: free, about 10 minutes
You pay at the visit and I provide a superbill for out-of-network reimbursement.

Yes. Many patients naturally mix languages, especially with medical or technical terms, and that’s completely fine.
No. It’s the same evaluation, the same medication management, the same follow-up process available to any patient here, conducted in Russian.
In person at the Fort Lee, NJ office, or by telehealth anywhere in New Jersey or New York.
