Biography
As the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at UNLV's interim vice dean of clinical affairs and co-director of UNLV Health, Alison Netski oversees and manages the clinical activities for approximately 160 faculty physicians, 260 residents, and 25 fellows throughout 19 clinic locations.
Board-certified from the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology in Psychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine, she specializes in the treatment of adults with a broad range of psychiatric illnesses including mood, psychotic, and anxiety disorders. She also has expertise in psychosomatic disorders, geriatric psychiatry, ADD/ADHD, and psychiatry in physical illness.
Netski was driven to enter the field of psychiatry based on observations during medical school that patients in desperate need of psychiatric care often did not receive proper care because nurses feared them.
In addition to her clinical practice, Netski provides consultation services at University Medical Center.
