Uri Wolf MD

I am a psychiatrist practicing in both Canada and Israel. I strive to make the assessment and treatment process as comfortable and meaningful as possible. I have offices in both Jerusalem and Beit Shemesh. I am also available for virtual assessments from anywhere in Israel. 

I work with adults to assess and treat people facing various mood and anxiety challenges such as depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic attacks, OCD, PTSD, and ADHD. I believe that collaborating with families and other care providers is key to successful treatment. 

In addition to treating adults of all ages, I also have a special interest in geriatric psychiatry and cognitive disorders, such as dementia and mild cognitive impairment. I also specialize in people with neurological disorders causing cognitive or other mental health struggles (neuropsychiatry). 

In addition to being certified as a psychiatrist in Israel, I am also certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada as a General and Geriatric Psychiatrist. I also have additional certification in Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry from the United Council for Neurological Subspecialties.

I completed my medical and psychiatry training at the University of Toronto. Prior to relocating to Israel in 2022, I held an academic and teaching appointment to the University of Toronto as Assistant Professor. I authored over a dozen publications relating to dementia and other neuropsychiatric conditions. I have also lectured widely on a range of mental health topics.

In Toronto, Canada, I was a staff physician at the Baycrest Center for Geriatric Care. At this prestigious institution, I was a member of the specialized memory clinic and inpatient dementia unit and helped develop a virtual model of treating people with dementia. I worked in a private practice specializing in general adult psychiatry and occupational psychiatry. 

I have been the Medical Director of Relief Resources-Canada, a mental health referral and support organization, since 2010. I am currently the Medical Director of Avnei Chein, an organization that helps support patients and their families going through mental health crisis.
