Our Treatment Approach
A simple cheek swab is analyzed for genes that affect how your body processes many psychiatric medications. Dr. Forbes interprets the results in the context of your full history to inform — not dictate — medication choices for Plano patients. It's one more tool in a truly personalized, root-cause approach.
Why Telehealth Works for Plano
Plano's affluent, achievement-oriented families drive high demand for adult and teen ADHD evaluation and for second opinions when medication hasn't worked as hoped. Telehealth removes the biggest barriers to care — travel, time off work, and long waits — so Plano residents can see Dr. Forbes from home. Research shows telepsychiatry is comparable to in-person care for evaluation, medication management, and follow-up.
