ADHD Testing & Treatment in Miramar, FL
Twelve Oaks Psychiatry provides ADHD testing and treatment for children, teens, and adults, in person at our Cooper City office just north of Miramar and by telehealth across Florida. Miramar is one of Broward’s youngest and most diverse cities, with roughly four in ten residents born outside the U.S., and many adults first recognize their own attention patterns only after a child is evaluated, which is why care here is built for the whole family. Michael Hernandez, APRN, PMHNP-BC leads each evaluation.
ADHD Evaluation for Miramar Residents
An ADHD evaluation here looks closely at how attention and focus play out across a full family schedule, from morning routines to homework and work deadlines. When it is useful, Michael adds QbTest, an FDA-cleared computerized ADHD assessment done in person at the Cooper City office.
That objective data helps sort ADHD from look-alikes such as stress, anxiety, or poor sleep, so each family member gets a plan that fits what is actually going on.
Why Choose Twelve Oaks Psychiatry
