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.

In-office versus Florida telehealth
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in North Miami Beach presentations. Medication Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.

If prior authorization is required, start it the same day.
Revisit the original diagnosis if two classes have failed.
Review PDMP and allergies.
Protocol elements we do not skip
QTc risk: ECG when combining high-risk agents.

Missed labs = delayed titration.
Questions we hear about Medication Management
Do you prescribe stimulants?
When the evaluation supports ADHD and PDMP/safety checks pass. Not from a questionnaire alone.
Do you work with my therapist?
With consent, yes. Medication does not replace psychotherapy when both are indicated.
Will you take over my current list?
After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.
What labs do I need?
Depends on the drug: TSH, lithium level, A1c, etc. We will list them in the plan.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 24 minutes from North Miami Beach.
How often are visits?
Tighter after a start or change; wider when stable and labs are current.
Can North Miami Beach residents use your Hollywood office?
Yes. Our Hollywood office is about 15 minutes from North Miami Beach via I-95. We also offer telehealth for routine medication management and follow-up appointments.
Do you understand immigration-related mental health challenges?
Yes. We see many patients dealing with adjustment stress, anxiety related to immigration experiences, and intergenerational trauma. Our evaluations consider these cultural and social factors alongside clinical symptoms.
Book Medication Management
Questions about insurance, labs, or whether Medication Management can be done by video: call (888) 307-2199 before you book so the visit type matches the clinical need.
After Medication Management is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.

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.
