Questions we hear about Telehealth Psychiatry
What if Zoom fails?
We call you. If safety is in question, we use emergency pathways.
What about emergencies?
988 or ER. Video visits are not emergency departments.
Do you prescribe Adderall by video?
Only if the evaluation and PDMP support it, and policy allows. Not as a first-click product.
Is this the same as therapy?
No. This is medical psychiatric care. Therapy referrals remain separate.
Can a family member sit in?
With your consent, as collateral. Not as a substitute historian who takes over.
Is 'online psychiatrist' an MD?
Consumer language. Your clinician is a PMHNP-BC. We do not hide that.
Do you treat older adults from Margate?
Yes. We specialize in mood changes related to aging, medication management for complex cases, and hormone replacement therapy for both men and women experiencing age-related hormonal decline.

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.
