Clinical FAQ
Adrenal fatigue?
Not a diagnosis we sell.
Vitamin D religion?
We treat deficiency, not a fandom.
Can labs be wrong?
Yes. We repeat when needed.
Telehealth results?
If you are in Florida.
Office for interpretation?
22 min from Oakland Park if in-person.
What if labs are normal?
We still treat the psychiatric diagnosis if it is there.
Do you treat anxiety related to life transitions?
Yes. Life transitions — career changes, relocations, relationship shifts — are common triggers for anxiety and depression. Our evaluations assess these factors and create targeted treatment plans.
How far is Oakland Park from your office?
Our Hollywood office is about 20 minutes from Oakland Park. Telehealth appointments are also available for follow-up medication management visits.

In-office versus Florida telehealth

Lab used to avoid talking about trauma or alcohol.
What we rule in — and rule out

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.
