September 19, 2011 Dear Colleague: Behavioral Health Urgent Care, Central Florida’s first psychiatric urgent care, opened in April 2011. Since then, we have grown exponentially, and we are expanding our offices to accommodate more immediate appointments and provide more assistance to people in crisis. Our new space will feature additional therapy offices, comfortable private areas for patients to relax while waiting to be seen, and more staff to support the growing demand. Our operation is thriving thanks to referring physicians like yourself who understand the need for immediate psychiatric care. For that, we are forever grateful. We strive every day to offer the most high quality psychiatric care to our patients without the wait time associated with many psychiatric offices. We see patients within hours, not days, and we offer them the psychiatric and counseling services that provide support and rebuild skills and confidence. Behavioral Health Urgent Care offers mental status examinations, outpatient addiction treatment and detox, and immediate psychiatric consultation. Should you have a patient in need of urgent psychiatric care, please don’t hesitate to call our office. We work directly with referring physicians to make sure that referral patients receive priority, immediate care and any records are forwarded as necessary. For more information on Behavioral Health Urgent Care, please view our website at www.behavioralurgentcare.com. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call our office at 407-852-8882. We strive to be friendly and accommodating, so please contact us if we can assist in any way. Sincerely, Lawrence B. Erlich, M.D. Medical Director Behavioral Health Urgent Care |
