Scott D. Ispirescu, MD, a Psychiatrist with Orange Coast Psychiatric Associates

Get to know Psychiatrist Dr. Scott D. Ispirescu, who serves patients in Laguna Niguel, California.

A highly trained psychiatrist, Dr. Ispirescu is the founder of Orange Coast Psychiatric Associates, seeing patients in Laguna Niguel, California. He specializes in mood & anxiety disorders, sleep medicine, ADHD, and other childhood developmental disorders. He works with children, adolescents, and adults to enable them to live their lives to their fullest. 

Regarding medication management, he often hears complaints that physicians have become “pill pushers”. While he believes that medication is an important component of treatment, it is only one building block in successful treatment. In addition to a holistic treatment approach, good nutrition, exercise, rest, and recreation all form a foundation on which to build good health.

Educated locally in Southern California, Dr. Ispirescu attended UC Irvine and obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. After graduating from the Loma Linda University Medical School, he completed his residency in psychiatry and his fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at the University of Southern California.

Recently, Dr. Ispirescu is also offering Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for patients with treatment resistant depression.  This allows patients who are really suffering from a depression which does not respond to medication to have hope with this new cutting edge technology.  

As a testament of his continued education, the doctor is board-certified in psychiatry by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN). The ABPN is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to serving the professions of psychiatry and neurology.

Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of mental disorders. These include various maladaptations related to mood, behavior, cognition, and perceptions. Psychiatrists evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients with mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. They conduct thorough psychiatric evaluations, develop treatment plans, prescribe medication, and evaluate treatment results.

Valuing volunteer work, Dr. Ispirescu has spent time helping local communities here in the United States, including on a Native American reservation in New Mexico.  In addition to his work in the United States, he has also spent time in India, Brazil, Fiji, and Honduras doing medical missionary work.

Happily married, he loves spending time with his wife surfing together and watching sunrises and sunsets from the water. In addition to surfing, he is also an avid mountain climber and has climbed peaks in the Himalayas, Peru, and other parts of North America. He has also spent a year abroad working in New Zealand.

Photography is another hobby which brings him great enjoyment. He enjoys snapping photos of landscapes, people, or under water. His other hobbies include skiing or snowboarding, mountain biking, and triathlons. He is fluent in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, and Romanian.
