What Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing actually includes
Iron deficiency brain fog is a medical problem we measure.
Ferritin and fatigue belong in psychiatry when the history fits.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Neighborhoods we hear from most in Sunrise include New River, Springtree, and the Flamingo Road corridor. ZIP codes 33313, 33322, 33323, 33325 map to this service-area page.
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.
Treat, refer, or watch — with a date.
Share with PCP with consent.
How Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing is structured
Do not stack 12 supplements the same week as a new antidepressant without a reason.
Integrate into the DSM-5-TR formulation.
Pick the smallest panel that could change the plan.
Crisis path unchanged.

Protocol elements we do not skip
Duplicate-test check.
GeneSight after trial history.

What we rule in — and rule out
Fatigue, cold intolerance, hair loss, or weight change suggesting thyroid/iron.
Before blaming 'just anxiety.'
Neuropathy plus metformin plus mood.
Not indicated: weekly wellness draws.
Book Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing
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.
Crisis now is 988 or the ER — not the booking form. For non-urgent Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing, use (888) 307-2199 during weekday hours.

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.
