Medication Management for Clovis Patients
Good psychiatric medication management is far more than writing a prescription. For Clovis patients, Dr. Stacey Forbes, DNP, PMHNP-BC, takes the time to understand your full history, optimize your regimen, and monitor closely — all by secure telehealth.
Who benefits from medication management
- ✓Anyone starting a new psychiatric medication
- ✓People whose current medication isn’t working well
- ✓Those managing side effects or complex regimens
- ✓Patients seeking a second opinion on their medications
- ✓Anyone wanting a root-cause view alongside medication
Our Treatment Approach
Dr. Forbes personalizes medication selection and dosing, monitors response over time, and pairs prescribing with attention to labs, nutrition, and the gut-brain connection. GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing can help guide choices. Clovis patients get longer, unhurried appointments instead of the typical rushed 15-minute visit.
Medication Management in Clovis: the local picture
Clovis is an agricultural and railroad city on the eastern plains, and Cannon Air Force Base immediately west of it makes the military presence central to local life. That gives the city two distinct populations: farming and ranching families with deep multigenerational roots, and Air Force families who arrive on orders and leave on orders. The military population brings deployment-related stress and the specific strain of repeated relocation on spouses and children; the agricultural population brings the isolation and financial exposure common to farming regions.
Getting care in Clovis
Eastern New Mexico has minimal psychiatric specialty capacity, and Albuquerque is several hours west across the plains. Military families face an additional and predictable disruption: a permanent change of station ends a care relationship regardless of how well it was working, often mid-titration. Telehealth cannot follow a family across state lines, but it does mean that for as long as a patient is in New Mexico, continuity does not depend on which town they live in or how far they are from a city.
What this means for Clovis patients
Medication management for service members and veterans has to account for what is already prescribed across more than one care system, where interactions and duplications are easy to miss. It also has to account for clearance and duty concerns honestly — those concerns are frequently based on outdated assumptions, and leaving them unaddressed is what stops people from starting treatment.
When the nearest prescriber is hours away, medication management tends to collapse into infrequent visits and long unchanged prescriptions. Proper titration requires check-ins measured in weeks, not seasons, and that cadence is what telehealth actually makes possible in a rural setting.
Sedating side effects matter differently for someone driving two hours a day, and that has to shape which medication is chosen and when it is taken. It is a specific, practical question that a rushed appointment reliably skips.
