Dr Zwi is a clinician who loves working with children, young people and their families. After studying medicine in South Africa, where he grew up, he moved to the UK in 1985 and trained as a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist.

Children and Young People’s emotional difficulties can have an enormous impact on the individual and their family. This is particularly so for children with neuro-developmental conditions such as ADHD and Autism.

Dr Zwi supports young people and their families to make informed clinical choices by discussing clinical evidence in plain English. This is how he applies “evidence-based practice”.

Dr Zwi worked as a consultant at Richmond NHS CAMHS from 1994 – 2014 and at Islington CAMHS from September 2014 to 2019, where he still provides some cover. His special interest areas include ADHD, autism, anxiety, ODD and depression. His academic work has focused on the issue of clinical evidence and his publications are mainly about ADHD.

He was made a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists in 2003, served as a Professional Advisor (Research) to the Department of Health between January 2007- March 2009 and provided expert psychopharmacological input to the Paediatric Medicines Expert Advisory Group at the MHRA from 2009 until July 2023.
