Awesome!! Please continue to fill out our form.

Please do not fill out this form. At this moment, we are providing psychiatric services ONLY to residents of the States of North Carolina and Florida. 

DO NOT FILL OUT THIS FORM.  If you are having a medical or psychiatric emergency, including but not limited to suicidal or homicidal thoughts, medication side effects or any other time-sensitive issue, please do not use this service. Instead call 911  or go to nearest emergency room. 

Sounds good! The intent of this form is to request an evaluation and it does not establish a doctor-patient relationship. By continuing to complete this form, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this. 

If you are seeking care for someone else, please contact us at info@luxpsychiatry.com

We require contact with the potential patient prior to scheduling an appointment. 

I am not able to accept payments directly from Medicare patients due to Medicare rules. You should contact Medicare for a list of participating providers. 

Patients that have Medicaid benefit from seeing a provider in network as it will be more economical. 

It is important you find out before you move forward. Unfortunately, due to Medicare rules, I am not able to accept payment directly from patients that have Medicare. 

Patients that have Medicaid benefit from seeing a provider in network as it will be more economical.

 Before we move forward, there is important information I'd like you to know...

                                              YOUR INITIAL APPOINTMENT

 Our initial evaluation is a consultation. At the end of the appointment, we will both decide if my practice is a good fit for you.  I treat most psychiatric conditions and further apppointments may be required for me to complete the consultation and discuss diagnosis and plan. 

 I also collaborate with other medical providers and I can help your family doctor with your mental health treatment. 

 During the initial appointment, we will discuss your needs and goals. If I am not able to meet those needs/goals I will not accept you as a patient.  

 If you do not agree with my recommendations or do not think we would be a good fit, my initial appointment fees will still apply even if you decide to not continue treatment. I will still make an effort to provide you with referral information if needed. 

 If you no-show to your first appointment, you will be charged the full amount for the appointment ($365).  

OTHER IMPORTANT THINGS WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT...

Federal regulations prohibit me from prescribing controlled substances such as stimulants (like adderall, ritalin, etc.) and/or benzodiazepines (like xanax, klonopin, ativan, etc.) without an in-person evaluation. During COVID-19 Public Health Emergency, these rules were relaxed some. 

Even if you have been prescribed stimulant medications before, I will only prescribe them after a rigorous evaluation and if they are indicated.

We can discuss this further during your session. 

By continuing foward with this form, you acknowledge understanding of these policies. 

                                         FEES AND PAYMENT

We require a credit card on file. It is stored in a secure way. If later on you need to change the credit card you have on file, you can do so through the Patient Portal. 

I do not bill insurance companies directly. You may file a claim with you insurance company if you have out of network benefits. You may use the invoices that will be provided to you. It contains all the information needed by your insurance company.

Though I am not in network with insurance companies, the difference between my fees and the reimbursement from your insurance to you many times is similar to what you would pay for a co-pay if you saw a doctor in network.

Payment is due at the time of service.
