Frequently Asked Questions
-
The costs of seeing a reproductive psychiatrist across CA will vary considerably depending on factors like location, education & experience of the clinicians, in vs. out-of-network, and others. Women’s Wellness Psychiatrists specialize in providing comprehensive mental health care that demands a personalized, tailor-made approach. As such, we do not follow the one-size-fits-all treatment guidelines dictated by most insurance companies and are out-of-network. Our fees are commensurate with our unique expertise and can be viewed under the Services/Rates page.
-
Yes! We are accepting new patients. We have same and next-week availability. Our concierge care model caps the volume of patients each physician sees to help ensure flexible scheduling for patients, especially for any urgent needs. We primarily see patients via Telehealth (i.e. virtually), throughout the state of California. In-person visits, when necessary, can be arranged in our S.F. Bay Area or Los Angeles offices.
-
Our goal is to provide personalized care without dictation of treatment by an insurance company or administrator. Therefore, at this time, I do not accept any insurance plans. Please read this important notice by Dr. Glezer outlining the key significant challenges that come with accepting insurance for mental health treatment.
If you have a PPO plan, you may be eligible for reimbursement from your insurance company for out of network services. If so, I am happy to provide a monthly invoice (AKA superbill) to submit. I recommend you contact your insurance company and check. Here are several questions to consider asking:
** Do I have an annual deductive for outpatient mental health services with a psychiatrist?
** How much is my co-pay or co-insurance per visit?
** How many visits do I have annually?
** Are there limitations on the conditions/diagnoses that can be reimbursed?
You can also consider using your FSA (Flexible Savings Account) for reimbursement of service fees.
-
A reproductive psychiatrist evaluates and treats conditions across the reproductive lifespan, which often have a hormonal component. This includes premenstrual syndromes, perinatal and postpartum conditions, and perimenopausal challenges. To learn more about our approach, please visit our Services page and our Holistic Psychiatry Treatment page.
-
Patients seeking a reproductive psychiatrist across CA and who intend to pay out-of-pocket are not required to obtain a referral from a primary care physician. This allows for direct access to psychiatrists and empowers women to seek specialized treatment without navigating additional administrative steps.
-
We are primarily a telehealth practice, as this allows us to serve our hundreds of patients residing throughout California. When necessary, we can arrange in-person appointments in either our S.F. Bay Area or Los Angeles offices.
