He went on to complete public psychiatry fellowship training at Columbia Presbyterian/New York State Psychiatric Institute to further his interests in public psychiatry in the context of psychiatric treatment in urban primary care settings. Continuing to follow his interest in public psychiatry, Dr. Tate served as ACT team psychiatrist at Bellevue Hospital Center. Dr. Tate currently does inpatient consult-liaison work at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens, serving the communities he was raised with in his native borough, Queens, New York.
