Clinical FAQ
Insurance?
Verify. Metabolic meds and visits have different coverage rules.
Do I need a dietitian?
Often yes. We refer.
Exercise?
Dosed. Not a punishment.
Crisis / medical instability?
ER. Especially with restriction and electrolyte risk.
Can I refuse weight as a goal?
Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.
Affordable coaching URL?
Retained slug. This is not cheap coaching.
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.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
Sunrise (Broward County) has about 96,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 22 minutes from Sawgrass Mills and the Amerant Bank Arena district.
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.
Telehealth for follow-up; office for exams.
Follow up; depression relapse often precedes weight relapse.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
Sleep screen.
Eating-disorder screen every new patient in this service line.
Alcohol quantification.
No untested supplement stacks.
Book Wellness & Weight Management
After Wellness & Weight Management is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Wellness & Weight Management so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.

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.
