Adult ADHD Treatment in Odessa

The first visit is $169 for new patients who book online and keep a card on file, 35% below the $260 regular price, and nothing is charged at booking. Follow-ups cost $136 a month. Read how the program works on the adult ADHD treatment page.

Is Odessa in Pasco or Hillsborough County?

It spans both. The area around State Road 54 is in Pasco County, while Hillsborough County lists Keystone Park & Recreation Center, at 17928 Gunn Hwy., with an Odessa, FL 33556 address. For ADHD care at Padgett the county line changes nothing: the first visit is at the Tampa clinic, and telehealth follow-ups work anywhere in Florida.

How do you get from State Road 54 to the clinic?

Take State Road 54 to the Suncoast Parkway, head south as the parkway turns into the Veterans Expressway, and leave it at Linebaugh Avenue, where the clinic is a short way east. It comes to about 13 miles and 18 minutes on a clear road, and both expressways charge tolls.

From the Hillsborough side, around Keystone Park on Gunn Highway, Van Dyke Road reaches the same expressway within a couple of miles, and the trip is about 10 miles and 15 minutes. Gunn Highway itself heads south toward Citrus Park and costs nothing, though its signals make it the slower choice.

What will the provider want to know at the first visit?

Morgan Colee, PA, uses the 30 minutes to learn what your symptoms are, when they started, including in childhood, and where they cause trouble at work or at home, along with your health history, current medications and any records you bring. For adults 17 and older, the diagnostic criteria call for at least five symptoms of inattention or of hyperactivity-impulsivity, according to the American Psychiatric Association.

So arrive with examples rather than a general impression. Write down three moments from the past month when focus, time or follow-through broke down, and one from your school years if you can recall it. The evaluation, not an online quiz, is what decides what the pattern means.

What isn't decided in advance?

Neither a diagnosis nor a prescription is promised before the visit. If treatment makes sense, you and your provider weigh the options together: stimulant or non-stimulant medication, practical non-medication strategies, or a mix. A controlled medication is only prescribed after an E-FORCSE check, the state's prescription drug monitoring program, and your own pharmacy fills it, separately from the visit fee.

How do monthly follow-ups work from Odessa?

Each follow-up is 15 minutes with the same provider, costs $136, and is required to stay on treatment. You can drive in or join by video, provided you're physically in Florida and show a valid Florida driver's license or state ID on camera.

If your home internet is unreliable, make a test video call from the room you plan to use before the first follow-up. A dropped connection eats into 15 minutes quickly, and you can always switch that month to an in-person visit at the same price. ADHD telehealth in Florida lists what to have ready.

Padgett is open 9 AM to 5 PM on weekdays and stays open until 7 PM on Wednesdays, so an in-person follow-up can slot in on the way home from a job in Tampa.

Where do Odessa residents already spend time?

Keystone Park & Recreation Center on Gunn Highway has basketball, tennis and pickleball courts, open fields and picnic shelters, and a walkway from the center leads to the Austin Davis Public Library, according to Hillsborough County.

The library on Wayne Road, which moved into its permanent building in 1993, has a large reading room and a quiet area, per the Hillsborough County Public Library Cooperative. It's a calm place to put together your medication list or read up before the visit, though a video follow-up belongs somewhere more private.

Can a stressful stretch make it look like ADHD?

It can. Stress, poor sleep, anxiety and depression all affect concentration, which is why the evaluation asks when your trouble started and whether it follows you through quiet weeks too. If worry and restlessness are part of what you feel, read ADHD or anxiety? before the visit.

How far are nearby areas from the clinic?

Keystone, south along Gunn Highway, is about 13 minutes from the clinic, and Citrus Park about 6. Land O' Lakes, east along State Road 54, is about 24 minutes, which makes telehealth follow-ups more tempting there.
