Access from Pembroke Pines

Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.

Pembroke Pines (Broward County) has about 171,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 12 minutes from Pembroke Lakes Mall corridor and Century Village.

Pembroke Pines sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.

Book Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing

Start with one thorough Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing evaluation rather than a series of 15-minute check-ins. Book at (888) 307-2199 or online.

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.

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.
