A different practice, by design.

Most practices are booked out because they are overbooked. We hold capacity for new patients because the front door of psychiatric care is the part that fails most often. If you have decided to start, the decision is itself fragile. Two days is a number that respects that.

Insurance verification calls, eligibility checks, pre-visit questionnaires the clinician has not read. We collect what we need in one short form, verify your plan in parallel, and put the time where it matters. The first contact you have with a human at Feel August is the clinician, in the visit.

Fifteen minutes is enough time to refill a prescription. It is not enough time to evaluate whether the prescription is right. We built the practice around the hour because the diagnostic work that should happen in a first visit cannot be done in less. The follow-ups are twenty minutes, which is still longer than what a fifteen-minute med check allows.

Most large practices rotate. The pharmacological record gets handed off; the relationship does not. Ninety-eight out of a hundred of our patients see the same clinician every visit. Switching is possible if the relationship is not the right one, but it is the exception, not the architecture.

When a fifteen-minute slot is the unit of work, the easy answer is one more prescription. Over years, the regimen accretes. We map what you are taking before we change anything, and we are as willing to deprescribe as to prescribe. The goal is the right regimen, not the longest list.

Most practices bill what they can and let the patient negotiate. We verify your plan the business day after you book and email you the confirmed cost. The amount on that email is the amount you will pay. No balance billing, no surprise statements.

When you have to recap what brought you in every appointment, the appointment becomes the recap. We hold the thread. Your clinician opens each visit with what is different since you last spoke, which is what continuity is actually for.
