About

Consultation-liaison psychiatry is the subspecialty Dr. Larissa Lacorte, MD brings to the San Diego behavioral health team at Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center in Allied Gardens, 4647 Zion Ave, 92120. She earned her medical degree from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine in 2007, completed a psychiatry residency at the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Phoenix from 2007 to 2011, and finished a consultation-liaison fellowship at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System from 2011 to 2012. That fellowship training focuses on the intersection of psychiatric and medical illness, equipping her to manage conditions where depression co-occurs with chronic disease or post-surgical distress, coordinating across specialties including the OB/GYN practice of Parvin Mani, M.D., F.A.C.O.G. when perinatal mood disorders require psychiatric-obstetric collaboration. Dr. Lacorte is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and carries hospital affiliations with both Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center, reflecting the multi-campus reach of the Southern California Permanente Medical Group's behavioral health division. Her clinical scope at the Zion campus includes psychiatric evaluation, major depressive disorder management, and crisis-intervention protocols coordinated through Kaiser's integrated care model. Allied Gardens sits along the Interstate 8 corridor in 92120 with the Zion campus positioned between Waring Road and Orcutt Avenue, part of a medical corridor that extends to complementary recovery resources including San Diego Cryotherapy on the same stretch. Patients schedule through Kaiser's centralized behavioral health intake at (619) 528-5000.
