The Mental Health Access Gap in Ladson, SC

Ladson sits at the intersection of Berkeley and Dorchester counties just off I-26, a working community with access to the broader Charleston metro but limited local healthcare resources of its own. Most Ladson residents travel to Summerville, North Charleston, or Charleston for primary care and mental health services.

Telehealth has substantially changed what is available to Ladson and Berkeley County residents. South Carolina law authorizes licensed providers to evaluate, diagnose, and prescribe via telehealth anywhere in the state. Access to a qualified mental health prescriber is now a phone or computer call away, with appointments available in days rather than months.
