About

UCSD faculty psychiatrist at 8950 Villa La Jolla Dr, Suite C101, La Jolla, CA 92037, practicing through the UC San Diego Health Psychiatry outpatient clinic that occupies the ground floor while national private groups LifeStance and Mindpath run practices upstairs. Dr. Bhakta's individual Google listing is separate from the institutional UCSD profile, following the dual-listing pattern common among university-affiliated physicians. The UCSD faculty model gives patients clinical trial eligibility, subspecialty referrals within the university system, and training-hospital oversight unavailable through the private practices in Suites C217 and C230. Dr. Kornberg's dual board certification in child/adolescent and general psychiatry at Michael Kornberg, MD on Ivanhoe Ave makes that practice the closest pediatric-specialized alternative for families who want a community psychiatrist rather than the academic medical center model.
