Services
Treatment begins with an evaluation that lasts one hour.
Treatment is based upon the evaluation, because the response to each available treatment can be predicted based upon the patient's symptom profile and response to prior treatments.
The evaluation consists of hundreds of questions which reveal the individual symptoms and pattern of symptoms which are the hallmarks of illness and predict treatment response.
The questions cover the current episode as well as prior episodes in order to understand how the illness manifests itself in the individual patient.
