More recently I have gained a passion for working with NPs which is a major need in the field of mental health. Countless patients have suffered through incredibly long wait times in order to be seen by a mental health provider. As awareness for mental health increases around the nation, the need for more immediate treatment has never been greater and I fully believe that NPs have a very large role to play here. I have over 15 different NPs that I collaborate with at this time. I pride myself in being easy to work with and provide each NP with my direct cell and they can reach out at anytime. Conversations typically start with a quick text and we can schedule a phone call or video meeting from there if needed. The initial meeting is used for introductions and to assess each other's prescribing methods and approach to certain cases. I understand that supervision may not be needed for standard non-complicated cases and respect each NPs freedom to run their practice as they see fit. However, I have much experience in treating complicated cases so I urge NPs to never hesitate to reach out at any time, even if it is for a quick question. ADD $100 FOR OHIO AND ALABAMA.

I have been collaborating with nurse practitioners since 2016 in various forms of clinical practices. Some of these fields include: health risk assessments, ketamine infusions, IV hydration, weight loss, pain management, aesthetics, opioid use disorder, and testosterone replacement. I have extensive experience in setting up PC/PLLC ownership as well as legal compliance with an MSO and MSA and have legal counsel to assist. I am a firm believer in assisting nurse practitioners in achieving their business goals as well as maintaining state requirements for the collaborative relationship. I aim to foster a business relationship that allows the nurse practitioner to practice to the fullest extent of their training and scope of practice. My goal is to be a clinical resource, a business resource, and an ally throughout your journey.
