A psychiatric evaluation is a comprehensive 60–90 minute initial appointment focused on gaining a full understanding of your mental health. During this visit, we take the time to carefully explore your emotional concerns, current symptoms, mental health history, and any previous treatments you may have received. We also review your medical history, medications, sleep patterns, substance use, family history, and significant life stressors.
This session is designed to be collaborative and nonjudgmental, allowing you to openly share your experiences and goals. The information gathered helps in forming an accurate diagnosis and identifying contributing factors affecting your mental wellbeing. Together, we discuss treatment options and develop a personalized plan that may include medication, lifestyle recommendations, therapy referrals, or ongoing psychiatric care tailored to your individual needs.
Medication management appointments are structured 30-minute follow-up visits that focus on evaluating how well your current treatment plan is working. These visits allow for ongoing monitoring of symptoms, functional improvement, and overall progress. We carefully assess medication effectiveness, adherence, and any side effects you may be experiencing.
Adjustments are made thoughtfully and safely, based on your response and clinical guidelines. Education is an important part of medication management, ensuring you understand how your medications work, what to expect, and how to take them safely. The goal is to find the most effective dose and combination while minimizing side effects, supporting long-term stability, and improving quality of life through consistent follow-up care.

The goal of this clearance is to enhance patient safety, improve surgical outcomes, and ensure that individuals are fully equipped to achieve sustainable weight loss and overall health improvement.
GeneSight® Pharmacogenomic Testing is an advanced genetic test that analyzes how your DNA may affect your response to certain medications. By identifying clinically significant genetic variations, this test helps healthcare providers personalize treatment plans, especially for conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other mental health disorders. The results provide valuable insights into how your body may metabolize or react to commonly prescribed medications, reducing trial-and-error in treatment.
