Why Caliper

A caliper is a tool for specific measurement.  We know that healthcare providers often treat all patients the same without taking the time to listen, understand what is happening in their lives, and provide treatment options customized for them. 

At Caliper, our goal is help our patients live better lives by addressing both the physical and mental challenges they are facing.  We treat patients with precision through an integrated approach that combines the use of traditional prescription medication, off-label prescription remedies and therapy sessions. 

We offer telehealth mental health services in Florida, New York, and Connecticut.

We offer primary and urgent care services via telehealth in Florida.
