Adult ADHD affects 4.4% of adults and is characterized by inattention, distractibility and impulsivity. While more than likely these symptoms were present during your childhood they may not have fully developed until you reached adulthood. This is due in large part to the increased number of responsibilities we take on as adults.
If left undiagnosed and untreated, ADHD victims may turn to other, more destructive ways to cope. As one of the top adult ADHD specialists in Atlanta, Dr. Hege is more than able to get you treated for the underlying problem and receive possible permanent relief.
Dr. Hege believes that persistence is what really cures these disorders and the medication only helps. Dr. Hege believes that it is very important to use the most advanced technologies, new medications and refined diagnoses to provide his patients with relief. He wants, more than anything, to see you coming back better than you were when you left. The more challenging the case the better as Dr. Hege looks forward to gaining more knowledge and more experience to better help future patients. This is the kind of attitude it takes to become a top Atlanta psychiatrist.
Dr. Hege’s patients have been reported to get better more quickly and with fewer side effects. Additionally, about half of the patients currently in his office were referred to him by other patients as well as by therapists of other patients. With properly prescribed medication specifically for anxiety or insomnia, relief is possible with days. Approximately 70% of patients under the care of Dr. Hege, Atlanta’s anxiety disorder specialist, receive relief within 2 or 3 weeks.
If you are new to Atlanta and simply need to continue being treated by someone local, Dr. Hege is perfect for you.
Dr. Hege accepts patients 18-64 years of age. However, he does not accepts medicare or patients with major mental illnesses. He is a psychiatrist and not a psychologist and therefore it is not within his jurisdiction to offer psychotherapy or counseling, only prescribe medications.
