Sleep, cortisol clues, and the scale
We will refer to nutrition and therapy. We will not pretend a 20-minute visit replaces both.
What Wellness & Weight Management actually includes
Stress eating and emotional eating still get a differential (binge-eating disorder vs situational).
Exercise and mental health: start at a dose depression can survive.
18-minute path to the Hollywood office
Plantation sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Wellness & Weight Management when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
Neighborhoods we hear from most in Plantation include Plantation Acres, Jacaranda, and the Broward Boulevard professional district. ZIP codes 33311, 33313, 33317, 33322 map to this service-area page.
ZIP 33311 is the lead postal code listed for Plantation. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
You were discharged from a weight program for 'noncompliance' during a depressive episode.
Protocol elements we do not skip
A1c/lipids/TSH as indicated.
Eating-disorder screen every new patient in this service line.
Refer if medically unstable restriction.
Privacy around weighing.
DSM-5-TR framing for sustainable wellness plan
Patients asking for GLP-1 who also have a psych history.
Depression/anxiety driving intake or inactivity.
PMDD-related intake changes.
Binge-eating or night-eating.
From intake to follow-up: Wellness & Weight Management
Decide: therapy, dietitian, med switch, anti-obesity med, or higher care.
Telehealth for follow-up; office for exams.
Sleep, shift work, and Plantation food access.
Involve family only with consent.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Plantation sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Wellness & Weight Management when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Wellness & Weight Management visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Refer out when the case is primarily endocrine or bariatric.
Do not start a crash diet in active eating disorder.

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.
