Neuro Wellness Spa Welcomes Dr. Baback "Bob" Gabbay as Medical Director in Westlake Village and Encino

ENCINO, Calif., March 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Neuro Wellness Spa is pleased to announce the addition of Dr. Baback "Bob" Gabbay, M.D. to our team as the new Medical Director for our Westlake Village and Encino locations. Dr. Gabbay brings over 12 years of clinical experience, a deep passion for mental health, and a commitment to delivering exceptional patient care.

Dr. Gabbay is a highly skilled psychiatrist with a diverse background in mental health treatment. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Economics from UCLA before completing his Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree at the same institution. His postgraduate training includes a residency in Adult Psychiatry and a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, both completed at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center.

Specializing in Women's Mental Health and Geriatric Psychiatry, Dr. Gabbay has extensive experience in a range of treatment approaches, including psychotherapy, family therapy, and medication-assisted management for substance use disorders. Throughout his career, he has worked with esteemed organizations such as the UCLA Women's Clinic, The Help Group, Penny Lane Family Treatment Centers, Jewish Family Services, and Center for Discovery. Most recently, he served as the Chief Medical Director and Attending Psychiatrist at Destinations for Teens, where he led a multidisciplinary team in providing compassionate care to adolescents and their families.

"We are excited to welcome Dr. Gabbay to our team," said Dr. Martha Koo, Founder and Chief Medical Officer at Neuro Wellness Spa. "His depth of experience and his genuine care for his patients align perfectly with our mission to provide exceptional mental health services to our community. Dr. Gabbay will be a tremendous asset to our team and the patients we serve."

In addition to his professional expertise, Dr. Gabbay is known for his approachable and engaging personality. In his spare time, he enjoys swimming, jogging with his puppy, singing karaoke, and spending quality time with his family.

"In the stormy seas of life, it can be difficult to see beyond the clouds," said Dr. Gabbay. "My goal is to help my patients find that rainbow—the hope, strength, and clarity they need to navigate through their struggles. Every journey to mental wellness is unique, but with support and understanding, there's always a path toward brighter days."

To celebrate Dr. Gabbay's arrival, Neuro Wellness Spa invites the community to a Mixer at our Encino location on April 29, 2025. This event offers an opportunity to meet Dr. Gabbay, connect with fellow mental health professionals, and learn more about our innovative treatments.
