    Every medication already in the picture, what each is for, and the tradeoffs to expect.

  • Body, Mind & Lifestyle

    Sleep, labs, nutrition, stress, and support considered alongside medication.

  • A Plan You Choose

    Talk through options together and choose the next step, starting with the smallest change likely to help.

“I walked into my first appointment nervous and honestly embarrassed to open up about what I was going through. He made that so much easier than I expected. He genuinely cared, he listened, and he never once cut me off or rushed me. At the time, my anxiety had gotten bad enough that I was struggling to function day to day. He was patient with me through all of it and took the time to actually understand what was going on instead of just handing me a prescription and sending me on my way. He continued to monitor how I was doing, and any time I had a question or concern about my medication, I never had trouble getting a response. I’m in a much better place now, and a lot of that is because of him. If you’re nervous about starting care, he’s the kind of provider you want. Highly recommend. Thank you soooooo much Justin.”
