hs-CRP is a marker, not a diagnosis
Abnormal TSH can mimic depression. That is why we check — not because every mood is endocrine.
Clinical scope of Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing in Broward County
B12 psychiatric testing when risk factors exist.
Thyroid mood testing is TSH with free T4 when indicated — not a T3 shopping list by default.
24-minute path to the Hollywood office
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Weston patients who drive 24 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Weston presentations. Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Weston sits in Broward County. County-level resources (crisis lines, hospital ERs, IOP programs) are discussed during Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing when a higher level of care is safer than outpatient titration.
Genetic testing used to deny you a needed medication that still had evidence.
How Functional Psychiatry & Lab Testing is structured
Results visit.
History first.
Send to a draw site near 33326 when possible.
Crisis path unchanged.
Parking, hours, and video visits
Neighborhoods we hear from most in Weston include Bonaventure, Weston Hills, and the Tequesta Trace area. ZIP codes 33326, 33327, 33331, 33332 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.
Discuss cost/coverage.
Treat, refer, or watch — with a date.
Indications and differentials
Before blaming 'just anxiety.'
Metabolic monitoring on SGAs (that's also med management).
Heavy menses plus brain fog.
Patient request after counseling on limits.
Protocol elements we do not skip
No 80-marker default.
Refer critically abnormal (e.g., severe anemia, thyrotoxicosis).
TSH + free T4; add T3 only if it changes management.
Morning T for men.

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.
