Medication Management

Medication Management

After the psychiatric and psychological evaluation, the physician will decide whether you need psychotherapy or medications or both. We develop a thorough treatment plan that includes medication recommendation and thorough review of possible side effects, safety, and effectiveness. Medications have a critical role in the treatment of mental health issues. The right medication can reduce or completely eliminate the symptoms, significantly improving the patient’s quality of life.

As mental health physicians we are fully aware regarding the efficacy of medications that vary from patient to patient. We will routinely monitor your psychotropic medications through regular laboratory test and evaluation for side effects
