Book Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing
After Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
