What Hollywood Patients Usually Ask About
Depression and anxiety together
They often show up together. Your provider looks at both and builds one plan, which could include medication, therapy or both.
Bipolar disorder
We diagnose bipolar disorder and stay on top of medication and lab work. Lab orders can go to Quest, Labcorp or any lab your plan takes.
Long-acting injections
Hollywood is close enough that coming in on an injection schedule is easy. We give Invega, Abilify Maintena, Uzedy and Haldol Decanoate at the office.

Care That Starts in Person
Our office is about 16 miles from Hollywood, far enough that most patients choose video. Most care works well by video, but two things begin with an office visit at 3015 N Ocean Blvd, Suite C101, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308: a first prescription for a stimulant ADHD medication, and long-acting injections. Non-stimulant ADHD options can usually start by video. Your provider will tell you if an office visit applies to you.
Insurance for Hollywood Patients
We accept Medicare, Florida Medicaid (including Sunshine Health and Carelon), Tricare, Aetna, Florida Blue, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Optum and Humana. Coverage depends on your plan, so staff check your benefits before the first visit. Without insurance, ask about sliding-scale self-pay rates. See insurance details.
Patients across Broward County see us the same way, and visits are available in English, Spanish, Russian, Urdu, Hindi and Hebrew.
