Timed, not pellet bait.
Do labs replace a psychiatric diagnosis?
No.
What if labs are normal?
We still treat the psychiatric diagnosis if it is there.
Genetic privacy?
We treat it as sensitive data.
Vitamin D religion?
We treat deficiency, not a fandom.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
