“TBH psychiatrists are clearly very pleased to be associated with TBH. They are a part of a community of other psychiatrists of quality. TBH recruits highly qualified psychiatrists into programs that appreciate that quality. As a result psychiatrists are almost always very pleased with the program, and in the few instances when that turned out to not be true, arrangements were made for a psychiatrists to move to another program.
“I have worked with Gary Hayes and TBH for about 8 years. TBH has proven
itself to be an excellent partner, and we now have TBH doctors for
about 70% of the California programs that have psychiatrists. The programs'
and psychiatrists' satisfaction with each other are very high.”
- Stephen Wilson, MD, Medical Director, Telecare
“TBH has done an excellent job of providing Telecare with capable psychiatrists. They are skilled at developing a resource pool of candidates and pre-screening doctors to match our requirements. In developing a partnership with TBH, we have been better able to meet our needs for quality psychiatrists. I highly recommend their service.”
- Stacey Calhoun, Vice-President of Telecare
“Now that we have passed the first trimester of TBH's involvement at St. Helena Hospital, I wanted to give you my overall impressions of how it's working out. Superb! Wonderful! Outstanding! Drs.

Thank you and your group for working with us.”

“TBH was awarded the contract for the psychiatric services in the last week of January 2007 at John George Pavilion with a start date of February 1.
“An interim plan was set in place immediately and the transition was very smooth. By March they had a Chief of Inpatient Services and 4.5 full time permanent doctors in place augmented by locum tenens, all of the weekend coverage taken care of and even the vacation relief doctor hired with a start date of July. We are very impressed.
“TBH’s doctors are exceptionally skilled and are team players. We are very excited about partnering with TBH to bring John George to a center of excellence.”
- Bill Manns, COO, John George Psychiatric Pavilion

“TBH is providing a "top-notch" professional service for our patients. We asked them to take over our inpatient psychiatric services with a month's notice. Gary and the team recruited very highly qualified psychiatrists at a moment's notice and they improved the quality of our care dramatically. TBH is just fabulous!” - Jeffrey V. Smith, Executive Director, CCRMC
“Gary, I
want to extend my gratitude and comment on the process so far. One month ago (May 14, 2007), I asked you to come in and present a proposal to senior staff to take over our contract for Crisis stabilization and inpatient psychiatry. Your proposal and presentation was extremely well received and we got an immediate green light to terminate with our former contractor and proceed with TBH.
“Since then, on behalf of CCRMC, TBH has hired 7 permanent crisis-stabilization doctors, and 3 inpatient doctors. Additionally, TBH has assumed contractual relationships with all five of our
independent contractors. Further, TBH has coordinated locum tenens coverage to bring us closer to full staffing the very day the contract begins (June 16, 2007) than we've been in the three years I've been the administrative director of the services. Not only has TBH been able to provide doctors, but the level of quality and experience in the medical staff at CCRMC will benefit tremendously from the quality and experience of the TBH physicians.”
- Miles D. Kramer, Administrative Director, CCRMC
“TBH
has supplied us with three full-time psychiatrists placed in long-term
positions and we are asking for more. The TBH doctors are excellent
psychiatrists and we are very happy with them. I feel TBH provides
excellent services.”
- Gary Bravo, MD, Medical Director, Sonoma County Mental Health
“TBH
has placed seven psychiatrists here at Humboldt County in Eureka.
We are a rural community environment and historically we have had
significant challenges in recruiting psychiatrists. TBH has not
only done a superb job in recruiting, their retention of physicians
has also been great. I am really delighted with Gary and the TBH
staff.”
- Kate Bell, MD, Humboldt County Mental Health
"For nearly a decade now TBH has provided medical staff for this Crestwood campus. We are very pleased with their services. The quality of the medical staff, the consistency of the physicians, the accuracy of the documentation, and the compassion in which the services are delivered clearly reflect the values and standards of TBH.
"Dr. Jones is a superb physician who is very popular both with the clients and staff. The longevity of our relationship with TBH speaks for itself!"
- Gail McDonald, RN, Campus Administrator, Crestwood Solano

“After 50 years of practicing medicine, I still find intermittent assignments to various settings served by TBH a professionally stimulating and valuable learning experience.”
- Alexander Blum, MD
“Working
for TBH is a great opportunity for a psychiatrist just out of residency.
The company is small enough to have a warm and friendly atmosphere,
and large enough to provide a unique variety of practice opportunities.
TBH psychiatrists are excellent psychiatrists as well as being diverse
and interesting people! In the TBH group there is plenty of the
support you need when you are just starting out. If I were looking
for a job in California, I wouldn't look any further than
TBH!”
- Barbara Roth, MD
“Fortune smiled when I contacted TBH. Trying to coordinate my practice commitments at home with the desire to do acute care work on a regular but limited basis had been difficult. TBH embraced the challenge and we have an arrangement that serves all involved parties well...”
- Carla Carroll, MD
“Gary, you might be wondering... why do I want to come back to TBH after leaving over a year ago for a busy private practice? I have recognized that private practice, despite many of the perks that it brings also comes at a cost... The other reason (probably more compelling) is simply that I miss the TBH Family... I am deeply appreciative for the interest... and the support you have provided.”

“TBH has given me the flexibility to grow and adjust my private practice.”
- Edward Lim, MD
“I retired in ’94, hated it... my association with TBH has been a source of work that has been far more rewarding than the pay. As a bonus, I have enjoyed my association with other TBH physicians at the monthly meetings and their annual retreat...”

“For the past three years I have represented Los Angeles County TBH/Telecare-partnered facilities in court providing testimony in conservatorships and other mental health related matters. The TBH approach fosters a close working relationship with the medical director and treating psychiatrists on all cases to assure the highest quality of patient care and advocacy...”

- Gillian Friedman, MD
“ I am fully supported by Dr. Hayes and the excellent office staff of TBH. I am treated with respect by the professional staff at Telecare Solano PHF. This is truly the best job I've ever had since becoming a psychiatrist. It is wonderful to see how successful this work can be when all of the players involved hold high the goal of quality patient care. I look forward to many years of gratifying work with Dr. Hayes and TBH.”
- Bradley Keller, MD
“As a psychiatrist who was in private practice for over twenty years and who worked as a regional medical director for a large corporate hospital chain, I have experienced the practice of psychiatry in a wide variety of settings. I can’t begin to describe my tremendous professional and personal satisfaction in now being a part of TBH...”
- Gregg Sentenn, MD
“Working for Gary Hayes and with Gregg Sentenn is by far my best professional practice experience. In the eight years since I started I've
worked a variety of locations and modalities depending on changing needs,
curiosity, burnout, and whim... Gary has unusual and genuine kind regard for our motley
crew of psychiatrists, and is amazingly tolerant of our differences and quirks.”
- James Kennedy, MD

“...My work is always stimulating, frequently rewarding, and ever changing. My complaint about TBH is that all psychiatrists are required to take at least six full weeks per year off, depriving me of yet additional stimulation and rewards (just kidding).”
- Jon Heiser, MD
“.. I joined TBH for the variety of clinical programs available to choose from, and the high degree of flexibility afforded to me by Dr. Hayes and Dr. Sentenn. Other important features of TBH for me are the enjoyable monthly doctor dinners, the annual weekend meeting in Napa Valley, and the high physician morale, camaraderie and collegiality among the TBH psychiatrists.”
- Keith McDaniel, MD

“Gary Hayes and TBH were able to sign me up for a part time job that allows me to sleep in and start work at noon, making it possible for me to follow my passions for Lindy Hop and Argentine Tango at night. Gary made it happen..."
- Margaret Copi, MD
“I was recently involved in a transition from being a provider for one medical group to being part of TBH when our hospital changed their contracts. At first I was somewhat reluctant and concerned that I would not receive the kind of agreements that were important to me in the current stage of my career. Gary Hayes understood what was important to me, provided it and has followed through completely...”
- Richard Slawsky, MD
“...I am particularly impressed at the way the company manages to maintain individual relations with their doctors. TBH has an ability to understand the needs of each individual doctor and to tailor-fit programs that best fulfill the mutual needs of doctors and the facilities or settings in which they work...”
- Rick Jenkins, MD
“I started at TBH in 2000 having become disgruntled with the irrationalities of the managed care system necessary to maintain my private practice. After all, as a Psychiatrist I thought my job was to fight against irrationality not cater to it. Joining TBH allowed me to continue doing the work that I love and am most suited for while no longer having to attend to that chaos...”
- Ron Seff, MD
“TBH attracts extremely talented clinicians from amazingly diverse backgrounds and with unique life experiences. Those times we get together are always fun and an opportunity to learn from one another. It feels important to find that perfect 'fit' with the TBH culture and the customers we serve when recruiting new doctors. Those who value collegial relationships and enjoy working as a team find this work most satisfying.”
- Russell J. Monroe, Jr., MD
“From a professional and personal standpoint, TBH has been nothing but a fulfilling and rewarding experience. I have found the perfect fit. From a personal and professional standpoint, relating to and working with Gregg and Gary has been a total pleasure.”
- Sam Gould, MD
“Since leaving a very busy private solo practice (acute inpatient combined with outpatient psychotherapy & med management) and coming to TBH, there has rarely been a day I have not been thankful for this move. I have often told people when I joined TBH, I thought I had died and gone to heaven. The opportunities, in addition, are limitless and the support/flexibility unmatched by any previous associations I have had in my professional career...”
- Sheldon Jones, MD
“...I have never felt as valued nor as supported as is the case with this group. I have just started my 4th year with TBH and look forward to many many more!”
- Stuart Gluck, MD
“TBH is able to offer a wide variety of practice settings to suit many practice preferences. I was looking for a straight clinical practice with minimal business and administrative duties. I have been very satisfied with my work assignment and my relationship with TBH in general.”
