Why Telehealth Works for Albuquerque
Albuquerque is New Mexico's largest city and the anchor of its mental health system, yet demand around the University of New Mexico and across the metro far outstrips local psychiatric capacity. Telehealth removes the biggest barriers to care — travel, time off work, and long waits — so Albuquerque residents can see Dr. Forbes from home. Research shows telepsychiatry is comparable to in-person care for evaluation, medication management, and follow-up.
