Choosing a medication
Your psychiatrist considers your diagnosis, past responses, other medicines, health conditions and preferences, then explains what the medication should do, how long it takes to work and which side effects to watch for.

Keeping treatment simple for Claremont patients
Most medication follow-ups are short, and for manufacturing, healthcare and retail workers a video visit avoids time off for travel. Tell us which pharmacy you use in Claremont or near work. If a medication needs blood tests, we explain what is needed so you can have them done close to home in Sullivan County.
Living in Claremont
Claremont residents often have limited local access to psychiatry. Our secure video visits help close that gap, and in-person visits in Salem can be arranged when needed. Patients who work across the river in Vermont should schedule video visits while they are in New Hampshire.
Transferring your care
If your previous prescriber retired, moved or left your insurance network, contact us before you run out. After an evaluation we can continue or adjust your treatment. A full medication list and recent records help avoid gaps.
Getting care from Claremont
Our office is in Salem, about an hour and 45 minutes from Claremont, so most Claremont 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
What if I have a side effect?
Call the office. For a severe reaction, call 911.
Can my primary care doctor keep prescribing?
Sometimes. We can stabilize treatment and then share a plan with your primary care provider.
Can follow-ups be by telehealth?
Yes, most can, as long as you are physically 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.
