Accommodation Paperwork
We are happy to provide and complete accommodation paperwork such as for FMLA, PFMLA, or related documentation. As this takes additional time outside of scheduled sessions, a $95 administrative service fee will apply.
Termination Policy
At times, terminating the physician-patient relationship is necessary. Termination of psychiatric treatment may occur at any time and may be initiated by either the patient or doctor. Reasons for termination by the physician are generally due to patient non-compliance with treatment(s), missed appointments or multiple cancellations, unpaid outstanding balances, or in rare cases, inability to continue therapeutic relationship. Dr. Ene-Stroescu will continue to provide medication refills for up to 30 days after a notice of termination in order to allow you to find a new physician.
Card on File
To become a client, your card information will be saved on file and will be charged in the event of a missed appointment or late cancellation.
Copays and deductibles are due at time of booking. Clients will be contacted and will not be automatically charged for any outstanding balances. If a card is declined, a $95 service fee will apply if not resolved within 48 hours of notification from our office. Failure to resolve payment will result in termination from our practice and your outstanding balance will be sent to our third-party collection agency.
Discontinuation of advanced treatment options
For those who elect to pursue time-intensive services such as Vivitrol, TMS, Ketamine and Spravato and do not begin, become unreachable, or drop out prior to completion of treatment plan for reasons deemed appropriate by the provider or a documented hardship (ex loss of employment or insurance coverage) are subject to a $195 service fee plus the self-pay cost for the remainder of the scheduled sessions.
Medication Management - 30 minutes
Review of responses to psychiatric medications, recommendations for changes or augmentations. Includes Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) for substance-use disorders. $250 for out-of-network and self-pay clients. Review your copay and deductible obligations prior to booking. Appointments are available within 5 business days.
For refill requests, please send a message in the patient portal, via email to support@axiostms.com, or by calling our office. Be mindful of when you are running low, refill requests may be contingent on having another appointment scheduled (especially for controlled substances), and are generally attended to within 3 business days.
TMS (Depression) - 30 minutes

Clinical interview (90 minutes), A QB testing session (30 minutes), and a Results Review session (30 minutes) as well as treatment recommendations.
Legal Fees
Participation in legal proceedings is distinct from clinical care and requires significant time for preparation, coordination, and court appearance. These activities are time consuming and stressful for providers, as they interrupt clinical responsibilities and require specialized attention. Accordingly, all legal services are billed separately at the rates outlined below. For these reasons, advanced payment is required and the following hourly and daily rates apply.
Preparation/Record Review/Attorney meetings $1,000 per hour
Court Testimony $4,000 retainer paid in advance for a minimum of 4 hours. This is not refundable if a scheduled court date is cancelled. If rescheduled, an additional $4,000 applies for the new date.
Additional Hours or if court proceedings are delayed $1,000 per hour
