New York · Evaluation, diagnosis, medication management
Mental Health in New York.
Comprehensive evaluation, diagnosis and medication-focused treatment for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder and more.
Mental health care at Wade's Care First starts with a real conversation. Charles Wade, FNP-BC takes a full history, reviews what has and has not worked before, and builds a medication plan around your goals rather than a checklist. Visits happen by secure video, often the same day.
For New York patients, care is delivered entirely by video. Prescriptions go to your New York pharmacy, lab orders go to a draw site near you, and coverage includes commercial plans, Medicare and select managed plans alongside Medicare and commercial plans. Some controlled medications carry New York-specific telehealth rules, and we explain those before your appointment rather than after.
