My name is Michael Segal. I was born in Bucharest, Romania, in 1957. I graduated from the Bucharest faculty of medicine (MD) in 1985, and one year later, I immigrated to Israel. I am married to Rodica and am the father of Ariel. My son is a student in economics at Haifa University. I finished my residence in psychiatry in 1995. Actually I am the head of a psychiatric ward in Sha'ar Menashe Mental Health Hospital, somewhere in the middle of the road between Haifa and Tel Aviv. In parallel, I am a lecturer at the Technion faculty of medicine in Haifa. I published papers in the field of clinical psychiatry. In 2011 I published my first book (and still now the only one) in Bucharest, in Romanian. The readers (not only friends) considered "Psihiatrii de pe strada Fenix" as a great success.
