Getting Help

If this is a life threatening emergency dial 911 or go to the nearest hospital or emergency room!!!


Since my practice is now closed, I am not available for follow-up appointments or medication refills.  

I strongly advise against stopping or changing medications without professional guidance. Doing this could result in withdrawal, overdose, relapse of mental health symptoms, and could be life-threatening or result in death.

If you have not arranged to follow-up with a local mental health provider, I would suggest that you contact your primary care doctor about medication questions and refill needs.

Portland's local emergency rooms and urgent cares which are always willing and ready to see patients regardless of ability to pay.
