Antidepressant and mood-stabilizer management in Broward County
Missed monitoring labs pause titration. That is safety, not punishment.
Medication Management for Sunrise patients
Functional psychiatry does not mean 'no medication.' It means medication plus the labs that could change the choice.
Antidepressant management includes adequate dose/duration, activation screening, and suicide-risk follow-up after initiation.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Sunrise presentations. Medication Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Sunrise patients who drive 22 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
Confirm the target symptom and the diagnosis it belongs to.
Document why a requested stimulant or benzo was declined.
Clinical FAQ
Do you monitor antipsychotics?
Weight, A1c, lipids, and neurologic side effects are part of the protocol.
What labs do I need?
Depends on the drug: TSH, lithium level, A1c, etc. We will list them in the plan.
Can I refuse a medication?
Always. Informed consent includes the option of no medication.
Will you take over my current list?
After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 22 minutes from Sunrise.
How often are visits?
Tighter after a start or change; wider when stable and labs are current.

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.
Sunrise sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Medication Management when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
Antipsychotic weight gain and A1c were never measured.
DSM-5-TR framing for telehealth med management
Hypnotics only after sleep differential, not as a standing nightcap.
ADHD medication only after the evaluation supports ADHD over mimics.
telehealth med management still has to map to a problem on the list.
A DSM-5-TR diagnosis that has an evidence-based pharmacologic option the patient wants to consider.
How Medication Management is structured
Confirm the target symptom and the diagnosis it belongs to.
Send the prescription to a named pharmacy; document the pharmacy.
Review PDMP and allergies.
Check labs due for the current class.

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.
