Frequently Asked Questions

What is a typical session like?

For the first consultation, we'd discuss the main issues at hand and get into the background of it all. A lot of questions may be asked about your history and the specifics of the current symptoms. The goal is to have a thorough assessment and give you a working diagnosis. Then, the pharmacologic and/or psychotherapeutic interventions may be discussed. Finally, we'll talk about your future goals for yourself and what you want to get from continuing these sessions. This will help us in coming up with the best plan for you moving forward. The next sessions will consist of us recapping the previous one, checking for improvements in symptoms and possible side effects of medications, and continuing the plan we made for you.

How long does a typical session last?

A typical session lasts around 45-60 minutes per patient. Some leeway may be given for first-time consults.

Do you issue Medical Certificates?

Yes. Take note that a medical certificate is a legal document affixed with my signature so there will be an additional charge. Medical certificates are not part of insurance coverage and shall only be given for specific valid reasons and after the consultation.

Do I need to pay first to get an appointment?

Yes, you will have to pay the fee before I will receive the request. The consultation fee includes only the following: examining the patient regarding the complaint, giving the correct diagnosis, and giving the appropriate management/prescription. There will be additional fees charges to you for any additional services offered during the consultation.

Can I book a face to face consultation with you?

This is doable, however it may incur additional charges and specialized scheduling.

What if the doctor does not respond within the guaranteed time?

Your request will be automatically cancelled by the system.

Can I message you via the NowServing app?

Yes, you can send me a message through the NowServing app once I already accepted your appointment. You will receive a reply as soon as possible.

Can I message you on your social media accounts?

Please keep all consult-related questions here on this platform. For any new concerns, please book another appointment. - this is the generic answer. I personally do not mind but this has to be talked about during the session itself.
