Patient Informationand Forms
Thank you for considering NC Neuropsychiatry for you and your family's care.
If you want to schedule an evaluation, please contact the office you would like to be seen in by phone or email.
The New Patient Coordinator will collect your information to ensure our practice is the right choice for your needs, verify insurance benefits, and schedule the first visit.
Once Your Appointment is Scheduled
Be Prepared For a Long First Appointment
New patient appointments are very comprehensive. This time may include some waiting while the patient is testing and information is gathered. Bring snacks, drinks (non-caffeinated) and any medication that will need to be taken during this time. Also bring quiet activities such as books, tablets, etc. We do have toys and magazines in the reception area. We do not recommend bringing small children to the initial evaluation.
Make Sure We Have Any Previous Records
Print the Release of Information Form below and take it to any providers the patient has seen who may have important information for our clinic to review. Medical Records may include:
- MRI, EEG or any other brain scan reports
- Recent lab work or blood work results
- Records from therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, medical doctors, primary care providers, pediatricians, that you want us to review.
No Stimulant Medication Should Be Taken on the Day of the Visit
If the patient is currently taking a stimulant medication, it should not be taken on the day of the appointment. Please feel free to bring it to the appointment. Some common stimulant medications are Adderall, Adderall XR, Concerta, Dexedrine, Metadate CD, Metadate ER, Methylin ER, Ritalin, Ritalin LA, Ritalin SR, and Vyvanse.
