Questions we hear about Telehealth Psychiatry
What if Zoom fails?
We call you. If safety is in question, we use emergency pathways.
Affordable online psych URL?

How close is the office if I need to convert?
About 36 minutes from Deerfield Beach to 7603 Davie Road Extension.
Do I have to be in Florida?
Yes, at the time of the visit.
Do you record the visit?
We document a note. We do not post visits.
Can you order labs?

Can seasonal residents establish psychiatric care with you?
Yes. We offer initial evaluations for seasonal visitors and can continue care via telehealth when patients return to their home state, subject to licensing requirements.
