Steady bipolar care for Keene patients
Bipolar disorder needs continuity. Keene patients can keep regular follow-ups by video between in-person visits, which makes it easier to stay on schedule with labs and appointments. If more support is ever needed, we can help connect you with community services such as Monadnock Family Services.
Living in Keene
Keene is the center of the Monadnock Region, with a college population, a regional hospital and many people working in education and healthcare. With our office about an hour and a half away, Keene patients usually see us by secure video, which also helps during winter weather on Route 101.
Pregnancy planning
Some mood stabilizers need special planning before pregnancy. Tell your psychiatrist early if you are thinking about having a child.
Getting care from Keene
Our office is in Salem, about an hour and a half from Keene, so most Keene patients see us by secure video from home. When an in-person visit is needed, we plan it so the trip is worthwhile.
Frequently asked questions
Can antidepressants trigger mania?
In some people, yes, which is why diagnosis matters.
Do mood stabilizers need blood tests?
Some do, such as lithium and valproate.
Can visits be by video?
Many follow-ups can, when you are in New Hampshire.
Can I have a video visit while I am in Vermont?
No. Our psychiatrists are licensed in New Hampshire, so you must be physically in New Hampshire during a video visit.
