Medication Management for Davie patients
Psychiatric medication management is ongoing medical treatment: indication, dose, monitoring, and an exit plan.
Genetic testing (pharmacogenomics) may change CYP2D6/2C19 probabilities. It is not a personality test.
12-minute path to the Hollywood office
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Davie presentations. Medication Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
ZIP 33314 is the lead postal code listed for Davie. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
Davie (Broward County) has about 105,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 12 minutes from Nova Southeastern University and Broward College's Davie campus.
Lithium or valproate was never given a level, TSH, or pregnancy counseling.
Clinical FAQ
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 12 minutes from Davie.
How often are visits?
Tighter after a start or change; wider when stable and labs are current.
What if side effects start this week?
Call the office. Do not wait for a distant follow-up if symptoms are severe. ER for emergency symptoms.
Do you prescribe benzodiazepines long-term?
Rarely, with a documented indication and a taper orientation. They are not a standing plan for GAD.
Can medication management be telehealth?
Yes if you are in Florida and the case is appropriate. Controlled-substance rules still apply.
Will I get a refill without a visit?
Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.
How far are you from NSU?
Our Hollywood office is approximately 10 minutes from Nova Southeastern University's main campus, making us a convenient option for students seeking psychiatric care.
Do you treat college students from Davie?
Absolutely. We work with many college-age patients on ADHD management, anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders common in academic settings.
From intake to follow-up: Medication Management
Counsel on onset, alcohol, driving, pregnancy, and overdose risk.
Reconcile the current list, including OTC, cannabis, and hormones.
Decide: continue, adjust, switch, or taper — one primary change when possible.
Document why a requested stimulant or benzo was declined.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Missed labs = delayed titration.
Benzodiazepines: indication, duration limit, taper language.
MAOI diet and washout rules if that class is ever used.
Formulary alternatives offered without pretending they are identical.
Parking, hours, and video visits
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Medication Management visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Davie patients who drive 12 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
Telehealth visits verify Florida location.
Decide: continue, adjust, switch, or taper — one primary change when possible.
