Update

Dr. Beasley is not currently accepting new patients.

If you are in need of emergency services, please remember to call 911 or go the nearest emergency room. Parkridge Valley and Erlanger Behavioral Health also provide screening evaluations for admission onsite.

For outpatient psychiatric services, you can contact your insurance for recommendations or we recommend considering: Agape Youth Behavioral Health Services, Scenic City Alliance of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, or River City Counseling.

2024 Stimulant update

Stimulant prescriptions will only be given for 3 months at a time. Those taking stimulants must be seen by Dr. Beasley every 3 months to renew prescriptions. At least once yearly, patients must be seen in person.

Phone/messaging upgrade 6/21/23

We are switching phone and messaging services tomorrow 6/21/23. The switch is scheduled to occur between 11a-2p. Messages may not be received in real time during that time period. Once we are up and running on the new platform there may be a lag in communication as we catch up with the new server and work through initial bumps in the road. Thank you for your patience with this process. This new messaging platform should ultimately make communication easier.

Summer update

Dr. Beasley is open to new patients again. New patients may now schedule online again without a referral. Appointments will be approved by Lauren and Dr. Beasley after review.

Dr. Beasley is trying a new schedule this summer. She will have earlier morning and later evening appointments several times per month for your convenience. You can look for these times to be available when booking in the office and online.

As a reminder, please allow 48 business hours for refills, especially for controlled substances.

Video appointments are still available. However, the patient needs to be within the state of Tennessee during the virtual visit. Regulations require that the patient being seen must be physically within the state that Dr. Beasley is licensed, Tennessee. Please verify before your appointment time if you need a virtual visit.

We are transitioning to a different texting/phone service. Please be patient with us while we make this transition.

As always, get outside and move your body!

Phone service is down today!

The practice switched to a new service in January and we’ve been having significant difficulties with it. Our phone line (voicemail and texts) are completely down as of 10a. We are working hard to resolve this and are deeply sorry for any inconveniences over the past few weeks as we did not realize that some text messages and voicemails were not being received.

If you need to reach Dr. Beasley today 2/24/23, please email her at [email protected] or send a fax to 423-425-9923. Our email and fax systems are separate from the Verizon phone account.

We are working quickly to switch to a different system ASAP.

Practice update!

Dr. Beasley has a new assistant, Lauren. She is assisting with communications, refills, prior authorizations. She is an amazing asset to the practice. Thank you for your patience while we transition her into the system.

RATE INCREASE EFFECTIVE MARCH 1, 2023

Medication follow-up appointments: $190

Extended 50 minute follow-up appointments: $325

New patient appointments (by referral only): $375

UPDATE

Dr. Beasley is only selectively accepting new patients by referral. Referring professionals can fax a patient summary or send notes to 423-425-9923 for review.

TennCare Notice

Dr. Beasley is NOT a participating TennCare provider. While she is happy to still see patients who are covered by TennCare and willing to pay out of pocket, TennCare does NOT cover any prescriptions written by out of network providers. This means that if you choose to see Dr. Beasley and have TennCare, any prescriptions written by Dr. Beasley will NOT be covered by TennCare. This is a longstanding issue that she has attempted many times to appeal unsuccessfully.

Happy PRIDE month ?

No matter how you identify, you are valid and your mental health matters. Dr. Beasley’s practice is an open and affirming space for everyone, and she welcomes the entire LGBTQIA community and their loved ones.
