About this condition

How panic attacks & panic disorder is evaluated and treated

Care for sudden episodes of intense fear, physical symptoms, and the avoidance that often follows them.

Care for Boynton Beach patients begins with a full psychiatric evaluation: current symptoms and how long they have lasted, psychiatric and medical history, medications and supplements, sleep, substance use, family history, and the daily stressors specific to work, school, and family life. From there we discuss a diagnosis in plain language and build a treatment plan together.

When medication is appropriate, options, expected benefits, side effects, and monitoring are reviewed at each visit. When helpful, care is coordinated with therapy, primary care, or other specialists, and laboratory or psychological testing may be recommended.

Getting to care from Boynton Beach

Boynton Beach sits about 55 miles north along I-95, a drive that commonly exceeds an hour and a half southbound in season.

Telehealth is the practical default here, including for the many retirees and snowbird households who prefer not to drive south; records are shared with Boynton Beach primary care on request. For panic attacks and panic disorder specifically, that means Boynton Beach patients are not asked to absorb a 52-mile trip in order to keep panic attacks and panic disorder treatment consistent. Appointments are available in English and Spanish, and records can be shared with your primary care physician or therapist in Boynton Beach on request.
