We are proud of our decades long record of clinical service to the culturally diverse residents of Los Angeles County. In addition, private outpatient and inpatient care is provided through the USC Faculty Practice Plan and the USC University Hospital.
Education remains a high priority.
Details of our psychiatric residency program are presented in a separate section. Training is offered in both adult and child psychiatry. Fellowship programs are available in Psychopharmacology, Forensic Psychiatry, Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, and beginning in 1998, in Emergency Psychiatry. In addition, USC and visiting medical students are posted in all Departmental Divisions. Departmental research interests run a wide gamut, from basic sciences and psychopharmacology, to forensics, to social and community psychiatry.
