Same-week appointments are often available. We'll send you a secure link before your appointment.

What to Expect from Medication Management

Whether you choose telehealth or an in-person visit at our Burtonsville office, here's what you can expect from our medication management services.

01

A Thorough Medication Evaluation

Your first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation — typically 60 to 90 minutes — where Dr. Fosu takes time to understand your symptoms, medical history, and previous experiences with medication. She reviews any current medications and explores what has — or hasn't — worked for you in the past. Whether you're joining from Silver Spring via telehealth or visiting our Burtonsville office, you'll receive the same depth of care. This isn't a quick checklist; it's a real conversation about your mental health and treatment goals.

02

Careful Prescribing & Monitoring

When medication is part of your treatment, Dr. Fosu prescribes with care and precision. She starts with low doses and monitors your response closely — adjusting as needed based on your feedback. If side effects come up, we address them. If something isn't working, we adjust. This is an ongoing conversation, not a one-time decision. For Silver Spring residents, our telehealth option means you can have these conversations without the 20-minute drive to Burtonsville.

03

Coordinated Care with Therapy

Medication works best when it's part of a comprehensive treatment plan. Dr. Fosu coordinates with therapists and other providers to ensure your care is integrated and seamless. Psychiatric evaluation is available for new patients, and we make sure all your providers are on the same page. Whether you're in Silver Spring or anywhere in Maryland, your care is coordinated and thoughtful. If you're also managing depression or ADHD, we can address those conditions together.

04

Ongoing Follow-Up & Support

Managing medication is an ongoing journey. We schedule regular follow-ups — in-person at our Burtonsville office or via telehealth — to track your progress, adjust treatment as needed, and provide ongoing support. We're here for the long haul, whether you're in Silver Spring, Burtonsville, or anywhere in Maryland. And we understand that life in Silver Spring can be busy — we'll work with you to find appointment times that fit your schedule.
