Dr. Janet E. Taylor,

Her background is a perfect fit to help the guests of “The Jeremy Kyle Show” get the assistance and support they need to live better lives. She’s a Community Psychiatrist in New York City, the Bronx and Queens and a Clinical Instructor of Psychiatry at Harlem Hospital.

The practice of Community Mental Health is extremely rewarding to Dr. Taylor, because “being on the frontline with individuals and their families battling the emotional and economic impact of mental illness is where I can make a difference.”  Dr. Taylor attended the University of Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky for Undergraduate and Medical School and had a internship in Internal Medicine at the Miriam Hospital-Brown University.  Her psychiatric residency was completed at New York Medical College-Westchester Medical Center. She received a Master’s of Public Health in Health Promotion/Disease Prevention from Columbia University and was a recipient of the 2008 Woman in Medicine Award (National Medical Association- Council of Women’s Concerns).
