Lewisville is the workhorse of Denton County - the lake, the old downtown finding its feet again, and apartment corridors that house half the metro's twenty-somethings at some point. Renter mobility is our clinical challenge here: people move yearly, and their care used to reset every lease. Telehealth ended that.
Insurance we see from Lewisville: Employer BlueCross and UHC, heavy Aetna share in the apartment corridors, LISD coverage.
Getting seen: Video care that survives every address change; evening slots for the 35E commute crowd.

What to Expect at Lyte Psychiatry
Your first visit usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes. Your provider will ask about your symptoms, medical history, current medications and what you want help with. You will discuss possible diagnoses and treatment options together. If medication is appropriate, your provider can send the prescription to your pharmacy.
Follow-up appointments are usually shorter, often 20 to 30 minutes. These visits give you and your provider time to review side effects, discuss what has improved and decide whether your treatment needs to change.
Before your first appointment, our team checks your insurance benefits and explains the expected cost. You will continue seeing a consistent care team, and you can contact the practice if a medication concern comes up between scheduled visits.
Who will I actually see in Lewisville?
