Donald A. Rauh, MD, PhD, FAPA, a Psychiatrist in Private Practice

Get to know Psychiatrist Dr. Donald A. Rauh, who serves patients in Yardley, Pennsylvania.

With over 30 years of experience in medical research and patient care, Dr. Rauh’s psychiatric practice serves the Newtown, Yardley, Doylestown and New Hope areas in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and also is conveniently located near Princeton, New Jersey and Mercer County. He sees treatment as a collaborative process enhanced by confidentiality and concern for a patient’s safety and individuality.

The doctor believes strongly in treating the whole person, factoring in circumstances such as diet and exercise that affect total health. When medication is indicated, he works incrementally, beginning with small doses and carefully studying the effect of each increment on both the patient and their symptoms.

In regards to his educational background, he is a graduate of Case Western Reserve University where he earned both his medical degree and Doctor of Philosophy degree in Biomedical Engineering with a subspecialty in information processing in the central nervous system. His interest in research took him first to Technicare, a subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson (JNJ), where he served as the Director of Technology Planning, working on the development of advanced imaging equipment as well as novel contrast agents. He then relocated to Pennsylvania to help in the start-up of a new company within JNJ. Here he served as the Director of Clinical Development, conducted Phase I, II and III multi-center Clinical Trials, and won the JNJ Achievement Award.

Returning to the practice of medicine, Dr. Rauh completed a residency in psychiatry at the Institute of Pennsylvania Hospital, where he received the Glencairn Award for Research and was named the Laughlin Fellow for Achievement, Dedication and Scholarship. His work was recognized as well with The Patient Care Award. He then completed a fellowship in child & adolescent psychiatry at Thomas Jefferson University, where he served as the Chief Fellow and was named Resident of the Year by the Regional Council on Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.

While working through his residency and fellowship, he concurrently studied psychoanalysis through four years of academic work in child and adolescent psychoanalysis and all five years of the Adult Psychoanalytic training program. He continued his work in psychoanalysis as an advanced candidate and academic graduate.

Distinguished as a Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association (FAPA), Dr. Rauh is a Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN), board-certified in both general psychiatry and in child & adolescent psychiatry. The ABPN is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to serving the professions of psychiatry and neurology.
