Titration and monitoring — not a refill mill
Crisis plus a medication question is still a crisis: 988 or ER first.
What Medication Management actually includes
Booking a med check is booking a medical visit, not a vending machine.
Side-effect visits are diagnostic: we name the mechanism when we can.
In-office versus Florida telehealth
{access}. That access pattern is why Medication Management for Weston is written as a service-area page, not as a fake storefront.
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.
Review PDMP and allergies.
Confirm the target symptom and the diagnosis it belongs to.
DSM-5-TR framing for antidepressant management
Taper request that requires a medical schedule.
antidepressant management still has to map to a problem on the list.
Bridge care after hospitalization until a stable outpatient cadence exists.
Polypharmacy review when the list exceeds what the diagnosis can justify.
Labs, scales, and follow-up cadence
QTc risk: ECG when combining high-risk agents.
Lithium: level, TSH, creatinine, pregnancy test as indicated.
New antidepressant: short-interval follow-up for activation and SI.
Opioid + benzo overlap is treated as a safety event.
Clinical FAQ
Can I refuse a medication?
Always. Informed consent includes the option of no medication.
How often are visits?
Tighter after a start or change; wider when stable and labs are current.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 24 minutes from Weston.
What labs do I need?
Depends on the drug: TSH, lithium level, A1c, etc. We will list them in the plan.
What is GeneSight?
A pharmacogenetic panel that may adjust probabilities for certain antidepressants. It does not diagnose ADHD or depression.
Can you prescribe if I am traveling?
Only if you are physically in a state where we are licensed — currently Florida telehealth.
Do you offer discreet telehealth for Weston patients?
Yes. Many Weston patients prefer our secure HIPAA-compliant telehealth option for appointments from the privacy of their home or office.
Can you help with executive performance and focus issues?
Absolutely. We specialize in ADHD evaluations, cognitive performance optimization, and medication management for adults who need to perform at a high level.

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.
