How do you see the provider?

Our physical office will initially be open Mondays through Wednesdays from 9am until 5pm. We do see patients through our parent company, East Coast Telepsychiatry on Thursdays and Sundays, but not at this location.
To make an appointment, you can call 804*246*4942, from 9am-6pm, or go to our CONTACT link above and request an appointment for any available slot Mondays through Wednesdays. "Walk-Ins" are always welcome, pending availability.

How does payment work?

Payment must be made at the time of service. You can pay with cash, debit or credit card. At this time we will take some insurances, but that must be verified prior to an appointment. Unfortunately, we do NOT take Medicaid or Medicare. When a person checks in, they will be aware of the base cost of their visit and pay when they are leaving. Any additional charges would be between you and the provider and added as necessary. Some examples would be; Bloodwork, a procedure that may be needed, a shot, etc.

Go to the menu at the top right of this page for more information.
