What Medication Management actually includes
Psych med management includes saying no when the requested drug does not match the diagnosis.
Leftover 'affordable refill' slugs are not a cash-pay promise.
Protocol elements we do not skip

Hyponatremia: BMP in older adults on SSRIs when symptoms fit.
New antidepressant: short-interval follow-up for activation and SI.

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.
How often are visits?
Tighter after a start or change; wider when stable and labs are current.
Do you work with my therapist?
With consent, yes. Medication does not replace psychotherapy when both are indicated.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 18 minutes from Plantation.
Are leftover 'affordable refill' URLs a discount?
No. They are retained slugs. Billing follows insurance contracts.
What is GeneSight?
A pharmacogenetic panel that may adjust probabilities for certain antidepressants. It does not diagnose ADHD or depression.
How long is the drive from Plantation?
Our Hollywood office is approximately 15-20 minutes from Plantation via 595 or Broward Boulevard. Telehealth is also available for follow-up appointments.
Do you take a functional approach to psychiatry?
Yes. Beyond traditional medication management, we investigate root causes including hormone levels, thyroid function, and nutritional deficiencies — an approach Plantation patients particularly value.
