Evaluation
Neuropsychological evaluations are often an essential step when investigating possible causes of memory loss. First, our providers will conduct a detailed interview to learn more about your academic history, medical and mental health, and all other factors that may be contributing to your current brain function. Next, we complete an extensive battery of cognitive testing to assess your memory capacity.
After the assessment, you will be provided with a comprehensive neuropsychological report that summarizes your test results and discusses possible diagnoses that are applicable. Causes of memory loss will be reviewed, and recommendations to support your memory and overall brain health will also be included.
