Special Features

The UH Psychiatry program is committed to expanding knowledge within a cross cultural, biological, psychological, and social framework. Residents are offered various opportunities to explore the dynamics of these factors in a cultural melting pot, because our location in the middle of the pacific brings together a rich tapestry of cultural diversity. We also offer opportunities in fellowship training in the specialty areas of Addiction, Child & Adolescent, and Geriatric Psychiatry.
