About Mindful Psychiatry & Weight Wellness

What is Mindful Psychiatry & Weight Wellness?

Mindful Psychiatry & Weight Wellness is a cash-pay practice at 4723 NW 53rd Ave, Suite B, in Gainesville, Florida 32653. It is mainly a psychiatric practice. Elizabeth Goldberg, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC, is the only prescriber named. She has over 15 years of experience in healthcare, and her background includes neurology and sleep medicine.

The practice treats adults for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and stress or life transitions, with ongoing medication management. It also offers weight management and metabolic health. That side uses prescription-based therapies, including compounded medications prescribed under state and federal regulations. It does not name any weight-loss medication.

What does it cost?

Psychiatric visits are $275 for an initial evaluation and $150 for follow-ups. Weight management visits are $200 for an initial consultation and $100 for follow-ups. Every price is per visit. Payment is due at the time of service, and credit cards, debit cards, and HSA/FSA accounts are accepted. It does not say whether medication is included in those visit prices.

The practice does not bill insurance directly, but it will provide a superbill for possible out-of-network reimbursement. In its own words: "My practice is cash based, allowing for personalized, compassionate care without insurance restrictions." Ask about sliding scale options if you are facing financial hardship. Under the No Surprises Act, you can also request a Good Faith Estimate of the total expected cost before you schedule.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether the visit price includes the medication, and if it does not, what the medication costs and where it is filled. Ask which medication would be prescribed, and whether it is compounded or a brand-name product. Since no weight-loss medication is named, this answer matters before you pay for a consultation.

Ask whether Goldberg prescribes the weight-management medications herself, since she is the only prescriber named. Ask what lab work and follow-up visits cost beyond the listed fees. Ask whether telehealth visits are offered, because it does not say. Ask for the hours, because it does not list them. Finally, ask how cancellations work, because it does not publish a cancellation policy.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want ongoing psychiatric care from a nurse practitioner for anxiety, mood, or ADHD concerns and you can pay cash per visit. It makes sense to call about weight management too, but get the medication answers before you book. The phone number is (352) 707-8188.
