“Variability is the law of life, and as no two faces are the same, so no two bodies are alike, and no two individuals react alike and behave alike under the abnormal conditions which we know as disease.” —William Osler, M.D. (1849-1919)”

Lab monitoring
Genetic testing (GeneSight®) to help guide the direction of treatment for patients who have failed multiple medication trials
Supportive psychotherapy in conjunction with medication management
Incorporation of holistic practices and alternative medicine
Coping strategies
Coordination with therapists and/or other practitioners involved in care

For in-network services, you are responsible for your co-payment, co-insurance, and a deductible, if applicable. I will then submit insurance claims for services rendered on your behalf.
While I am an in-network provider with some insurance carriers, I also accept self-pay patients who do not have health insurance or whose health insurance plan I do not participate in. Please contact me for my fee schedule for self-payment of services.
For those who have a health insurance plan that I do not participate in but wish to use out-of-network benefits, an invoice will be provided to you which you can then submit to your insurance company for reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs. Below are the codes that are commonly used:
Initial Psychiatric Evaluation:
99204+90838, 99204+90836
Medication Management Follow-up:
99213+90833, 99213+90836, 99214+90833, 99214+90836
Cancellation Policy
Please note that a late cancellation (less than 24 hours prior to a scheduled appointment time, excluding weekends and holidays) or appointment no-show will be subject to a $100 cancellation fee. It is understandable that some late cancellations may be unavoidable due to special circumstances. In these cases, the cancellation fee may be waived as a one-time courtesy.
Ancillary Services
Please note that there will be a flat fee charge of $50 for any ancillary services, such as form completion or letter drafting, that require more than 5 minutes additional administrative time outside of appointments. Additionally, these ancillary services are only available to patients who have been established in this practice for no less than 3 months.
