About Argyle, TX

Argyle is a community of approximately 5,500 residents in Argyle proper, plus surrounding Lantana / Canyon Falls communities, served by Argyle ISD (small, highly-rated district). Neighborhoods we frequently serve include Lantana, Canyon Falls, the Country Club Argyle area, the Hilltop Park area, the equestrian corridor along FM 407, and Copper Canyon (adjacent unincorporated areas). Local landmarks within walking, driving, or commute distance of our patients include the historic Argyle town center, FM 407 corridor, Argyle High School (highly rated, drives much of the residential demand here), and the equestrian and ranch properties along the western edge. Mailing addresses we routinely see in our patient population fall in ZIP code 76226.

Argyle’s small-town character means options for in-area psychiatric care are genuinely limited — most Argyle residents are already driving 20+ minutes for groceries and routine appointments. We’re often the closest board-certified MD psychiatrist for the area.

What We See Most Often From Argyle Patients

Argyle and the surrounding Lantana / Canyon Falls / Copper Canyon communities draw families specifically for the Argyle ISD schools and the rural-meets-suburban character of the area. We see Argyle patients across the family lifecycle — perinatal and postpartum mood disorders in young families who moved here for the schools, adult ADHD in working parents commuting to Las Colinas or downtown Fort Worth, and increasing volume of perimenopausal presentations. The equestrian and ranch culture in parts of the Argyle area also brings a population of patients managing trauma-related symptoms and seasonal mood patterns tied to seasonal physical demands.

Dr. Fredes' clinical focus on perinatal psychiatry, family-stage care, adult ADHD overlaps directly with the most common reasons Argyle residents seek psychiatric care.

Frequently Asked Questions from Argyle Patients

How long is the drive from Argyle to your Southlake office?

Argyle residents are typically 22-28 minutes from our Southlake office via FM 407 east to Highway 377 and Highway 114. The drive crosses through Roanoke and is generally smooth outside of peak commute. Both in-person and telehealth visits are practical for Argyle patients. For most Argyle residents, the drive is short enough that in-person visits are the norm rather than the exception.

Can I do all my visits via telehealth from Argyle?

Yes, for most conditions. The exception is ADHD: Texas law and DEA rules require an in-person evaluation before stimulant medications can be prescribed. After that initial in-person visit, follow-ups can be telehealth. For all other conditions (anxiety, depression, OCD, women’s mental health, sleep, mood disorders), care can be delivered entirely via telehealth.

What insurance do you accept?

We are in-network with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX), Cigna and Evernorth Behavioral Health, UnitedHealthcare and Optum (UBH), and Oscar Health. We also offer self-pay rates and provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement.

How quickly can I get a first appointment?

For new patients in Argyle, we usually have availability within 1–2 weeks for in-person visits and often sooner for telehealth. We will work with you to find the soonest time that aligns with your schedule and the type of care you need.

Do you prescribe medication for ADHD?

Yes. Dr. Fredes provides comprehensive adult ADHD evaluation and medication management, including both stimulant and non-stimulant medications. Note that Texas law and DEA rules require an in-person initial evaluation before stimulant medications can be prescribed, even if subsequent visits will be telehealth.

Does Dr. Fredes see patients herself, or am I assigned to a nurse practitioner?

Dr. Fredes sees every patient herself. There are no NP handoffs and no rotating providers. The doctor you book with is the doctor you see, every visit. This is a core part of how MindMED operates as a solo practice.
