Quality Psychiatric Care for Medicaid Patients
Finding a psychiatrist who accepts Medicaid in Orlando can be challenging, but quality mental health care should be accessible to everyone. At Empathy Health Clinic, we proudly accept Florida Medicaid plans and provide the same excellent care to all patients regardless of insurance status.
Our board-certified psychiatrists treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and other mental health conditions for Medicaid patients. We believe financial barriers shouldn't prevent anyone from receiving the mental health treatment they need.
Same-week appointments are typically available for new Medicaid patients. We offer both in-person visits at our Winter Park office (convenient to all of Orlando) and telehealth appointments throughout Florida.
