I, Sarah Anderson, FNP-C, am a board certified, family, nurse practitioner. My services are offered to the child beginning at age 6 who has been diagnosed with ADHD as well as adults, up to and including, geriatrics. I will prescribe medications to assist with the psychological, disease processes identified in the DSM V.
I will also offer alternative therapies including bioidentical hormones, supplements, testing, and nutrition to help those patients who are interested in alternative therapies for other disease processes which may be resulting in current symptoms. I will never insist on any course of treatment. I will offer possible options that I feel will best assist in the relief of symptoms of each, individual patient and it is up to the patient to authorize implementation of any of the proposed interventions.
I believe that our physical health is a manifestation of our entire wellbeing which very much includes psychological health. The mind and body do not function independently of each other. The health of the mind can either positively or negatively affect the health of the body and vice versa. As a Christian provider, my healthcare decisions are absolutely aligned with my Christian convictions.
I will need access to ALL current medications and supplements. Feel free to bring an updated list OR bring the bottles to your appointment. If there are supporting medical documents that you feel I should be aware of, please bring those with you to your appointment. You will be asked about your past and current medical history, past and current family history, surgical history, psychiatric history, and medications used currently or in the past to treat any psychiatric conditions.
All information obtained, exchanged, and provided during your care is protected by patient/provider privilege. Waivers may need to be signed or provided for information exchanged between myself and any of your other, healthcare providers or treatment team as it relates to your personal healthcare.
