Hillsboro Beach FAQs for Telehealth Psychiatry
Do you record the visit?
We document a note. We do not post visits.
What if Zoom fails?
We call you. If safety is in question, we use emergency pathways.
Can I do the first visit by video?
Often yes if privacy and risk allow. We may require Hollywood for complex or high-risk cases.
How close is the office if I need to convert?
About 36 minutes from Hillsboro Beach to 7603 Davie Road Extension.
Is 'online psychiatrist' an MD?
Consumer language. Your clinician is a PMHNP-BC. We do not hide that.
Do you prescribe Adderall by video?
Only if the evaluation and PDMP support it, and policy allows. Not as a first-click product.
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.
Parking, hours, and video visits
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Hillsboro Beach patients who drive 36 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
Hillsboro Beach sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Telehealth Psychiatry when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.

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.
