The average wait time for an ADHD assessment in Florida is now over 6 months. If you're struggling with focus, productivity, or suspect you have ADHD, that's simply too long to wait for answers and treatment. At MindRefined, we offer same-week ADHD evaluations via secure telehealth for all Florida residents.

Florida faces a severe shortage of psychiatric providers qualified to diagnose and treat ADHD. With only a handful of specialists accepting new patients, waitlists have grown to 6-12 months in major cities like Miami, Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville. Meanwhile, untreated ADHD affects your work performance, relationships, and quality of life.

As a University of Miami-trained Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with specialized ADHD certification, I provide thorough evaluations that include:

• 2-Hour Initial Assessment: Complete psychiatric evaluation using DSM-5 criteria and validated ADHD rating scales
• Detailed History: Childhood symptoms, academic performance, work history, and family patterns
• Cognitive Testing: Attention, executive function, and processing assessments
• Differential Diagnosis: Rule out anxiety, depression, or other conditions that mimic ADHD
• Treatment Planning: Personalized medication and therapy recommendations

Following diagnosis, we provide ongoing medication management with:

• Stimulant Options: Adderall, Vyvanse, Concerta, Ritalin - carefully titrated for optimal results
• Non-Stimulant Alternatives: Strattera, Wellbutrin, Guanfacine for those who can't take stimulants
• Monthly Monitoring: Regular check-ins to adjust dosage and manage side effects
• Insurance Coverage: We work with your insurance for medication authorization

We understand cost concerns. Here's our transparent pricing:

• Initial ADHD Assessment: $300-400 (CPT code 90791) - Most insurance covers 80-100%
• Monthly Medication Management: $150-200 (CPT codes 99214/99215) - Typical copay $20-40
• Insurance Accepted: Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Medicare, Tricare

Many adults in Florida are discovering they have ADHD after years of struggling. Common signs include:

• Chronic disorganization and poor time management
• Difficulty completing tasks or meeting deadlines
• Impulsive decisions affecting finances or relationships
• Restlessness and inability to relax
• History of underachievement despite intelligence

If you've wondered "Do I have ADHD?" for years, now is the time to find out.

We also provide ADHD evaluations for children (6+) and teenagers. Early diagnosis and treatment can dramatically improve:

• Academic performance and test scores
• Social relationships and self-esteem
