My name is Reka Furedi and I’m a board certified psychiatrist, with years of experience, serving patients throughout Wisconsin and Minnesota.
This practice was born out of my passion for psychiatry and respect for the unique needs of every single person that I care for.
Before deciding to open my own practice to follow this passion, I worked for years at a busy outpatient psychiatry department for a local health system, which allowed me to help numerous patients, improve lives, and become part of the local community that I would love to continue to serve.
Please take a moment to review a summary of my education and experiences:
