FAQ
Each visit is approximately 35-45 minutes. Our team is committed to providing the guidance and support you and your loved ones need. One way to do that is to ensure there is enough time to discuss your concerns and allow time to plan next steps.
Please bring any supporting documents so that our team can best understand you or your loved one’s concerns.
We encourage you to send ahead of time any reports, previous assessments, previous or current IEPs, grade reports, school observations, or any document that will give us more insight as to the patient's needs.
With your permission, we will photocopy documents and attach to the medical record.
While our clinic is not an assessment clinic and we do not conduct neuropsychological assessments, we can refer patients to skilled evaluators, if needed.
