About Philip J Fizur
Professional Statement
Dr. Fizur's clinical and research focus remains on health psychology, neuropsychology, and the integration of technology to promote advances in these areas. His research and clinical work has focused on the cognitive and behavioral correlates of various acute and chronic illnesses as well as interventions to address these correlates, with specific focus on cancer and diabetes. The work of he and his colleagues mainly targets adaptive coping with illness as well as adherence to medical treatment and common barriers thereof, most frequently comorbid depression, anxiety, and trauma.
To improve assessment and intervention outside of the clinic, he has both created and studied web-based, mobile-friendly applications through which patients can extend the effects of treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for depression and anxiety, track symptoms of their medical illnesses, manage medications, and receive reminders of content discussed during face-to-face meetings.
More recently, Philip has been afforded the opportunity to begin integrating psychological services into the primary care space at Cooper's Urban Health Institute with the goal of improving physical wellness by addressing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and trauma that often exacerbate many common health conditions. Inspired by the physicians of UHI, the overarching goal of this program is to address social inequities in physical and mental health treatment and outcomes. As a board member of the Association of Psychologists in Academic Health Centers he strives to better understand and help overcome barriers to effective dissemination and implementation of evidenced based interventions in healthcare.

I've been seeing Dr.Fizur for number of sessions, and the experience has been incredibly positive. From the very beginning, he created a safe, supportive space where I felt truly heard and understood. Dr.Fizur is not only compassionate and attentive, but also highly skilled at guiding meaningful conversations and offering practical tools that have helped me manage anxiety, process trauma, improve relationships. I am beyond grateful for his extended support.

The doctor had a good sense of humor and is very personable. I also like the fact that I do not have to deal with an intern and only the doctor.

I just like that my doctor let me talk and express how I feel. And then he filled me in on anything concerning what I'm talking about, whether I felt something was wrong and he acts as a mediator and he just listened to me and he's still considerate and concerned. And I really feel that.
