Welcome to the Department of Psychiatry at Queen’s University. I am so pleased to introduce you to our department.
My name is Leslie Flynn. I currently have the privilege of being the Interim Head of the Department. This is indeed an honour as I have had many years of experience working in this department and at Queen’s Health Sciences. This is a department of which I am very proud.
We are a large and complex department given our multiple areas of care, academic pursuits, and geographic distribution. We welcome you to explore this site to learn about us and the high quality clinical and academic work that we do.
The Queen’s Department of Psychiatry is recognized as a model of high quality, collaborative person and family-centred mental health care services, education, and research. Our strong and longstanding partnerships with Kingston Health Sciences Centre, Providence Care and multiple community healthcare providers and agencies stretch across Southeastern Ontario. With these partners we deliver integrated mental health care across the lifespan. We deliver innovative competency-based clinical education programs. Our department has become a centre of excellence in strategic areas of research. Our membership is diverse and multicultural.
We are a thriving and growing department. We take great pride in the work that we do and the contribution we make to our local community as well as our national and international academic partners. Please feel welcome to explore this site, reach out to speak to me or my colleagues and visit us at any time.
