Life and Care in Hilton Head Island
Hilton Head Island's median age is about 59, and nearly 40 percent of residents are 65 or older. Depression is not a normal part of aging, but retirement, loss and health changes can trigger it, and it is very treatable at any age.
About 2.5 million people visit Hilton Head Island each year, and the summer population can swell to 150,000, driving long seasonal hours for resort and restaurant workers. Hospitality work often brings irregular hours and income that rises and falls with the seasons, which can wear on mood.
Hilton Head Island's economy centers on resorts and hospitality and restaurants.
How Depression Treatment Works
Depression is more than sadness. It means low mood or loss of interest most of the day, nearly every day, for two weeks or more, often with changes in sleep, appetite, energy and concentration.
Your first visit is a full evaluation by secure video. Your provider uses standard questionnaires such as the PHQ-9, asks about your health and stresses, and looks for medical causes such as thyroid problems.
Treatment can include therapy, medication when clinically appropriate, or both. Your provider repeats the same questionnaires over time, so you can both see whether treatment is working. If you are having thoughts of harming yourself, call or text 988 or call 911.

We accept Medicare, most major commercial plans, and all South Carolina Medicaid managed care plans except Select Health (First Choice). New patients are often able to be scheduled within a week of requesting an appointment.
