About Bay Psychiatric Associates (BPA)& their physicians

Bay Psychiatric Associates (BPA) has been providing inpatient and outpatient psychiatric services to the San Francisco Bay Area since 1994. Our inpatient service is centered at the Herrick campus of Alta Bates Summit Medical Center in Berkeley, California. This facility is one of the largest and most comprehensive psychiatric programs in Northern California, with over 100 inpatient psychiatric beds as well as several partial hospitalization programs. We provide a full range of both inpatient and day treatment services to these programs. Our outpatient offices are located at two sites: one is across the street from Herrick hospital and the other is a short distance away in Berkeley. Currently, four BPA doctors are also providers of TMS Therapy.
