Dr. Robin Leder, MD – Hackensack, NJ

During the her medical career, Dr. Leder has served as consulting physician to several weight loss centers and smoking cessation clinics. In addition to internal medicine, the doctor is trained in meditation, and is familiar with many programs within the self-awareness and recovery movements. Specifically, she was an avid pupil of Dr. Alexander Lowen, internationally-renowned founder of Bioenergetics, a powerful physically-based approach to psychiatry.

On a personal note, the doctor has been a professional pop/rock/jazz vocalist for most of her adult life. She is a lover of children, the elderly, cats, dancing, good jokes, the Honeymooners, ice cream (in moderation) and the ocean.

In her practice, Dr. Leder successfully combines all elements of her background - medicine, nutrition, psychology, psychiatry, theatre arts, humor, etc. - to create a unique, multidimensional and highly individualized approach to her patients.
