Hormone-mood medications are reconciled with estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone plans.

Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 36 minutes from Deerfield Beach.
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.
Will I get a refill without a visit?
Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.
Do you work with my therapist?

What is PDMP?
Florida's prescription drug monitoring program. We check it before controlled substances.
Can I refuse a medication?

Absolutely. Isolation-related depression is common in coastal communities, especially among retirees and seasonal residents. Our evaluations identify contributing factors including hormonal changes and social disconnection.
