JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Comprehensive MedPsych Systems, a nationally recognized group of experienced, compassionate, board-certified mental health professionals, today announced the opening of two new facilities in Jacksonville and Jacksonville Beach, and appointed several new clinicians to its team.
