Plano, Texas
Medication Management in Plano
Plano runs on a calendar with no empty slots: Legacy West deadlines, school pickups timed to the minute, and evenings triple booked. A traditional psychiatric appointment costs half a day; Collin County's waitlists cost months. Most people here never start, and the load compounds. Psychiatric medication deserves an owner, not an autopilot. shrinkMD provides board certified medication management to Plano by secure video, with follow up that happens on schedule and decisions driven by measured results.

Why shrinkMD
Care built around Plano
From West Plano to Murphy, visits happen by video from home or a booked conference room, with the evaluation taking one hour once and follow ups taking 15 to 30 minutes inside a lunch block.
We bill no insurance, so nothing about your care exists in employer adjacent databases, with flat published fees and HSA and FSA funds accepted.
What's included
Stewardship, visit by visit
Good prescribing is a feedback loop. At each visit your clinician reviews your validated symptom scores, your side effects, and your sleep, then adjusts a single variable so cause and effect stay readable. While starting or changing medication that loop runs every two to four weeks; once you are doing well it relaxes to every one to three months.
Your full trial history, names, doses, durations, responses, lives in your chart from day one, so failed experiments never get repeated. Prescriptions go electronically to your pharmacy, monitoring labs are arranged through your local clinic when a medication requires them, and your primary care doctor stays in the loop with your permission. No controlled substances, stated plainly before you ever book.

Care and next steps in Plano
Frequently asked questions
Good questions, clear answers
Is care invisible to my well known employer?
Structurally yes: no insurance billing means no claims, no codes, and no records in any system an employer touches.
Do you see both spouses in a household?
Yes, as separate patients with separate records, and many Plano households start with one adult and add the other.
Do you prescribe stimulants or benzodiazepines?
No, anywhere. We are upfront about it before you book, and skilled with the non controlled options the evidence supports.
How do labs work with a telehealth practice?
We coordinate orders through your local clinic or lab, lithium levels, metabolic panels, thyroid checks, and review results together. Telehealth changes the visit, not the monitoring standard.
Can you take over prescriptions from my previous provider?
Usually yes, for non controlled medications, after an evaluation and records review. Switching should not mean starting over or missing a refill.
