Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Hallandale Beach patients who drive 12 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.

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.
