The mind and the body are both important parts of your overall well-being. We will work together to create a treatment plan that will improve your mental health and help you to feel like your best self.
I am a dual board-certified FNP and PMHNP. I have been working with patients in an outpatient facility for 3.5 years. I worked in Family Practice for 2 years before starting in mental health. I offer medication management services.
Call me for an appointment. I look forward to getting to know you and working as a team to improve your mental health.
Take the first step to help. Melinda Kaye Bates now
