What we review at each visit
How you have been feeling, any side effects, sleep, appetite, weight, energy, changes in other medicines and, when needed, lab results. Then we decide together whether to stay the course, adjust the dose, switch or taper.

Keeping treatment simple for Dover patients
Most medication follow-ups are short, and for healthcare staff, manufacturing workers and commuters to Portsmouth and the Pease Tradeport a video visit avoids time off for travel. Tell us which pharmacy you use in Dover or near work. If a medication needs blood tests, we explain what is needed so you can have them done close to home in Strafford County. Dover sits close to the Maine line, and some residents work across the border.
Living in Dover
Dover's mix of historic mill buildings, a growing downtown and family neighborhoods attracts people who work across the Seacoast. Many residents commute to Portsmouth or toward Boston, and some work in Maine. Video visits are a natural fit, as long as the visit happens while you are in New Hampshire.
Coming from another prescriber
We regularly take over care when a prescriber retires, moves away or leaves a network. Call before your supply runs low, and bring a medication list and recent notes so treatment continues smoothly.
Getting care from Dover
From Dover, our Salem office is about 50 minutes to an hour by car. Many Dover patients choose secure video for most visits and come to Salem when an in-person appointment adds something.
Frequently asked questions
Can I stop my medication on my own?
Please talk with your psychiatrist first; some medications need a gradual taper.
Can follow-ups be by telehealth?
Yes, most can, as long as you are physically in New Hampshire.
Do you prescribe controlled medications?
When clinically appropriate and permitted by law, with regular follow-up and state monitoring.
Can I have a video visit while I am in Maine?
No. Our psychiatrists are licensed in New Hampshire, so you must be physically in New Hampshire during a video visit.
