Med checks with a problem list, not a clipboard
Polypharmacy is treated as a risk to be justified, not a badge of complexity.
Clinical scope of Medication Management in Broward County
Top-rated language in old keywords is ignored. Monitoring quality is the product.
Tapering is scheduled. Paroxetine, venlafaxine, benzodiazepines, and stimulants each have different withdrawal physics.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Stimulants: BP/HR, sleep, appetite, PDMP, diversion discussion.
Hyponatremia: BMP in older adults on SSRIs when symptoms fit.
SGAs: weight, A1c, lipids; AIMS on a schedule.
QTc risk: ECG when combining high-risk agents.
How Medication Management is structured
Review PDMP and allergies.
Send the prescription to a named pharmacy; document the pharmacy.
Document why a requested stimulant or benzo was declined.
Check labs due for the current class.
Parking, hours, and video visits
Hillsboro Beach sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Medication Management when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
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.
Share the plan with the therapist when consent exists.
Review PDMP and allergies.

Questions we hear about Medication Management
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 36 minutes from Hillsboro Beach.
Will I get a refill without a visit?
Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.
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 you take over my current list?
After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.
Do you work with my therapist?
With consent, yes. Medication does not replace psychotherapy when both are indicated.
Can I refuse a medication?
Always. Informed consent includes the option of no medication.
Can I do all appointments via telehealth?
After an initial evaluation (which we recommend in-person for the most thorough assessment), most follow-up appointments can be conducted via our secure telehealth platform.
How do you ensure privacy?
All appointments and records are HIPAA-compliant. Telehealth sessions use encrypted video, and we never share patient information without explicit consent.

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.
