Jeffrey Zwerin, DO

Biography

I was born and raised in New York City. Attended Albright College in Pennsylvania prior to entering Osteopathic Medical School. After completing my residency I moved to CA and was a psychiatrist at Napa State hospital for over 30 years including 20 years as their Medical Director. Have done forensic consultations all over California including a consultation at San Quentin to assure those on death row receive appropriate psychiatric care. I have had the honor to teach psychiatry at Touro for over 20 years. Have been married for 43 years and have two grown children and 4 grandchildren I am an avid sports fan. Was on the track team in high school and played some semi-pro fast-pitch softball. I played competitive bridge for several years in tournaments all over the Bay Area. For about the last 15 years I have been hooked on golf and have a 14 handicap. Hawaii is my favorite place to vacation, and play golf. Loved to go on river cruises in Europe, and look forward to doing that again in the near future.
