About Me
Dr. Pojen Deng obtained his Bachelor of Science degree from Columbia University School of Engineering and completed his medical degree from the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University. He then completed dual residency training in neurology and psychiatry at the NYU Medical Center.
He joined the Mount Sinai Health System as a neurohospitalist with additional outpatient practice in neuropsychiatry, where he treats conditions at the interface of neurology and psychiatry with particular interests in neuroimmunology and epilepsy. He also collaborates across the department in clinical research and education.
His outpatient practice specializes in treating the following neuropsychiatric areas:
· Immunologically mediated neuropsychiatric disorders
· Epilepsy with superimposed cognitive and/or behavioral concerns
· Multiple sclerosis or other neuroimmunologic conditions with superimposed cognitive and/or behavioral concerns
· Traumatic brain injury with behavioral overlay and/or cognitive ramifications
· Stroke with cognitive sequelae and/or mood/attention issues
· Functional and somatoform disorders
· Neurological diagnosis with comorbid behavioral or cognitive symptoms
The state of Florida requires out-of-state professionals who are registered to provide telehealth services to display a hyperlink to the Florida Department of Health telehealth web page. This allows Florida patients who are receiving medical care by telehealth to confirm the provider’s licensure and Florida registration.

Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
Dr. Deng has not yet completed reporting of Industry relationships.
Mount Sinai’s faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
