Individualized Care
1. Meeting the Patient's Need
Dr. Augustus' goal is to find the best setting and level of care for each patient - whether it's in her office or with another provider. Meeting the need of the patient is the priority.
2. Establish History & Recommend Treatment
Dr. Augustus sets aside an hour minimum to assess each new patient. This allows for a personalized period of detailed discussion and evaluation of a patient's history and specific needs.
3. Monitor & Adjust Treatment Plan
After a patient's initial diagnostic evaluation, Dr. Augustus will follow-up with either medication management or counseling combined with medication management.
4. Achieve Stability
Dr. Augustus seeks to stabilize patients' presenting symptoms to return them to the highest level of functioning possible. Contact our office today to discuss your specific needs.
