What services can I receive through telehealth?

You can get all of your psychiatric services through telehealth. The team takes a whole-person approach, ensuring you receive exceptional mental and physical health.

By evaluating your overall health, your provider can recommend other services, treatments, and lifestyle changes to support your well-being.

The telehealth services offered by the Anita Red, MD, team include:

Initial psychiatric evaluation and diagnosis

During your first telemedicine visit, your provider reviews your medical history, learns about your current symptoms, and completes a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. They may also ask you to complete a simple questionnaire before your visit to note your emotional and behavioral challenges.

After diagnosing your mental health condition, your provider recommends a treatment plan. They take care of medication and refer you for non-medical services as needed.

Medication management

You can get prescriptions for all psychiatric medications through telehealth visits. Your provider sends the prescription to your local pharmacy electronically.

If you take medication, your provider schedules routine follow-up visits to keep track of your health and determine if you need medication changes to improve your results.

DNA testing

Your provider sends the kit to your home if you choose to have genetic testing. The kit contains everything you need to swab a sample inside your cheek and mail the sample to GeneSight®. 

They evaluate your DNA, obtaining information about how you metabolize psychiatric medications and whether your risk of side effects is higher for any specific medication.
