The Options MD Process

Your First Appointment

1 hour with a board-certified psychiatrist who specializes in working with patients who are suffering from severe and treatment-resistant depression.
TRD refers to cases of depression that first-line medications, such as zoloft, prozac, lexapro and more, have not relieved.

Comprehensive review of past treatments you’ve tried including what worked and what disappointed you.

Second opinion of any medications or treatments that you are currently on. Personalized recommendations for medications and treatments that are more likely to work for you.

Genetic testing to avoid medications that may cause side effects (at an additional fee).

Prescriptions for new medications sent to your local pharmacy or delivered to your door through Capsule, our home-delivery pharmacy partner.

What Our Patients Say

About Options MD
  • My experience with Options MD was very positive. I was very pleased with Dr. Rubaye and was very comfortable with the whole process. I would highly recommend this practice.

  • I found them to be really accessible in terms of being able to find what you need, being able to get to it, the language that was used, and the way that the research and the information was laid out.

  • I’ve struggled with depression for over 15 years. I was starting to feel hopeless until I found Options MD. Their individual approach to treatment helped steer me in the direction I needed to go to feel normal again.

A Note About Insurance

Unfortunately, Options MD does not currently accept insurance. For patients with out-of-network insurance benefits, we can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your health insurer for reimbursement. That being said, Options MD cannot guarantee reimbursement, and reimbursement is dependent on your plan benefits.
