Booking
Three ways a patient can book.
Each option reaches the same practice and the same prescriber, and each takes a patient only a few minutes. The therapist's part is no more than handing over a link, a contact, or a telephone number.
Booking is the patient's own step, taken directly with the practice. Once Dr. Winner has evaluated and assessed a patient, that patient is his patient for medication management, and therapy remains with the patient's own therapist. The care itself is described for patients at PsychMed Care.
Book through IntakeQ
The patient chooses a time at solutionspsych.intakeq.com/booking. Intake evaluations last 60 minutes and follow-up visits 30 minutes. Practice hours, Central time, are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7:00 to 19:00, and Saturday from 7:00 to 13:00.
Message on Spruce
A patient who wants to ask about fit or scheduling before booking can message the practice at spruce.care/solutionspsychiatry and book from there.
Call the practice
Telephone (800) 303-3221, fax (541) 508-4525, or email [email protected].
Why there is no web form
Deliberately. Clinical detail does not belong in a website form, so this site collects none. Booking, Spruce, and telephone are the HIPAA-appropriate channels the practice already uses, and they are sufficient.
Once a patient has booked, the practice checks coverage and confirms the exact cost before the first visit: $350 for the intake evaluation and $250 for follow-up visits on a self-pay basis, or a copay typically between $0 and $40 with insurance. The intake itself covers the full medication history and ends with a plan the patient understands, including what each medication is for and what would count as it working. The full sequence is set out on the how it works page.
The patient will see Dr. Winner personally at the first visit and at every visit after it. There is no panel, and there is no handoff. The first visit lasts a full hour, and follow-up visits last a full half hour. Patients are not squeezed into refill slots, and a medication that is not working receives a structured review rather than an automatic addition. That time is what the fee buys: a prescriber who knows the history before he changes anything.
