Clinical FAQ
Vitamin D religion?
We treat deficiency, not a fandom.
Thyroid?
TSH/free T4 when indicated.
Hormones?
Timed, not pellet bait.
Office for interpretation?
32 min from Lighthouse Point if in-person.
Insurance?
Varies by test. We discuss non-covered costs.
Crisis?
988/ER, not a draw center.
Do you offer pharmacogenetic testing?
Yes. We offer pharmacogenetic (GeneSight) testing to determine which psychiatric medications are most likely to be effective for your specific genetic makeup, reducing trial-and-error in medication selection.
What makes your evaluations comprehensive?
Our initial evaluations last 60-90 minutes and include clinical assessment, review of functional lab options, hormone screening discussion, and a personalized treatment plan — not a 15-minute med check.

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.
