Meet Philip B. Cawkwell, MD

Dr. Cawkwell is board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) in child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry. Having been trained at several elite institutions including UPenn, NYU, Harvard/MGH, and Stanford, Dr. Cawkwell has a specific interest and expertise in ADD/ADHD, Executive Functioning, Obsessive-compulsive Disorder (OCD), Bipolar Disorder, and Early Psychosis (Schizophrenia/Schizoaffective Disorder).

“I grew up in New York before heading to Philadelphia for college at the University of Pennsylvania where I ran cross country as well as track-and-field in addit.ion to my undergraduate studies in the biological basis of behavior. From there, I headed back to NY for my medical degree at the NYU School of medicine. I long knew I wanted work with adolescents to be a part of my practice and debated between pediatrics and child psychiatry. Ultimately, I chose to pursue psychiatry at the prestigious MGH/McLean training program in Boston before finally ending training with a fellowship at Stanford University.

I currently reside in San Jose with my wife, almost 1-year-old son, and dog (brittany spaniel). I still enjoy running, as well as hikes, sour beers, and building with Lego.”
