Can I do all my visits via telehealth from Fort Worth?

Do you prescribe medication for ADHD?

ADHD medication is prescribed only after Dr. Fredes' own complete diagnostic evaluation, never at a first visit. Initial evaluations for stimulant medication are conducted in person, and existing stimulant prescriptions are not transferred or continued without a full evaluation.

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.
