How to refer a patient

We keep the referral process simple so your patient gets connected to care quickly.

01

Send or call the referral

Phone, fax, or email works. Include the patient's name, DOB, insurance, primary concern, and your contact information. No specific referral form is required.

02

Patient receives outreach

We contact the patient directly to confirm their interest and schedule their first psychiatric evaluation — typically within 1–2 weeks for non-urgent cases.

03

Evaluation and care plan

The initial appointment is a 60–75 minute comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. A written summary and treatment plan is available to send back to you with patient consent.

04

Ongoing coordination

With a signed ROI, Nicholas communicates directly with your office regarding medication changes, crisis interventions, or care coordination. You stay in the loop.
