From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roger Granet, M.D., F.A.P.A., is psychiatrist and an author of several books on understanding disorders and diseases.

Granet is a consulting psychiatrist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center[1], Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Medical College of Cornell University, a lecturer of psychiatry at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, the Medical Director at the Center for Pychiatry and Psycho-oncology and an attending physician at New York Presbyterian Hospital and Morristown Memorial Hospital. He maintains private practices in both New York City, and Morristown, New Jersey.

He is the author of a number of books. With Elizabeth Ferber he wrote "Why am I Up, Why am I Down: Understanding Bipolar Disorder." In "Surviving Cancer Emotionally: Learning How to Heal" he argues that "a patient's emotional well-being improves her quality of life" while not connecting emotional states directly to the spread of cancer.[2] He is also the author of "Is it Alzheimers: What to do When Loved Ones Can't Remember What They Should" (1998), "Museum of Dreams," and "The World's A Small Town." His book, coauthored with Robert Aquinas McNally, "If You Think You Have Panic Disorder" took Panic Disorder: A Critical Analysis (1994), McNally's original "comprehensive and lucid" and "well written" text,[3] and adapted it for a wider audience.
