Medication Management and Pscyhopharmacology Consultations
Medication Management appointments are 25 minutes in length and are focused on your symptoms and response to medication. A list of target symptoms is generated that we will track over the course of your treatment. Supplements and alternative treatment options are incorporated where indicated and according to patient preferences.
