Why Fremont patients choose UMG

Care that fits your life.

The Fremont clinic serves the South Bay and Tri-City area — Fremont, Newark, Union City — plus patients from Hayward, Milpitas, and parts of Santa Clara County.

Full psychiatric services, including MAT for opioid use disorder, with Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi spoken — important access for the South Bay's South Asian community. All UMG providers are board-certified psychiatrists or psychiatric nurse practitioners. Initial evaluations run 60–90 minutes — we take time to understand your full picture, not just write a prescription.
