Daniel Tan

Dr. Daniel Tan is a nationally recognized physician and healthcare innovator, recognized for creating medical organizations that challenge the status quo. He is the founder of Top Tier Psychiatry, a national consortium of premier outpatient mental health clinics committed to delivering the highest standards of care.

Dr. Tan received his medical degree from the University of California, San Francisco, and earned a Master of Public Health in Health Policy and Management from Columbia University. Before entering medicine, he worked as a respiratory therapist in ICU settings at the University of Virginia—an experience that deeply influenced his appreciation for the intersection of physical and emotional well-being. He later completed a psychiatry internship before choosing to focus fully on transforming mental health delivery through entrepreneurship.

Since launching his first healthcare venture in 2015, Dr. Tan has founded multiple behavioral health practices and related ventures across the country, always with an eye toward more efficient, more compassionate systems of care. At the core of Top Tier Psychiatry is his mission: to raise the standard of mental health care across the United States by offering timely, personalized support that meets people where they are.

When he’s not working, Dr. Tan enjoys training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, dancing with his wife, and exploring new places with their daughter.
