Sunrise FAQs for Medication Management
What is GeneSight?
A pharmacogenetic panel that may adjust probabilities for certain antidepressants. It does not diagnose ADHD or depression.
Do you work with my therapist?
With consent, yes. Medication does not replace psychotherapy when both are indicated.
Can medication management be telehealth?
Yes if you are in Florida and the case is appropriate. Controlled-substance rules still apply.
Do you prescribe stimulants?
When the evaluation supports ADHD and PDMP/safety checks pass. Not from a questionnaire alone.
What is PDMP?
Florida's prescription drug monitoring program. We check it before controlled substances.
Can you help me taper?
Yes. Tapers are scheduled by drug class. Do not stop MAOIs, benzos, or paroxetine abruptly on your own.
Do you accept insurance for Sunrise patients?
Yes, we accept most major insurance plans. Call us at (888) 307-2199 to verify your specific coverage before your first appointment.
Can I get evening or weekend telehealth appointments?
We offer flexible scheduling to accommodate work schedules. Contact our office to discuss available appointment times.

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.
