FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSWHAT CAN I EXPECT? A complete neuropsychological battery takes approxi-mately 12–15 hours to complete. You will then meet with your clinicians once a week for a three-hour block of

time. To complete the evaluation, you will attend a total of approximately four to five testing sessions in a four- to six-week time period.

After the testing is complete, your clinician will generate a comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation report. This report will consist of relevant patient history (obtained during the intake interview at the first appointment), test results in narrative and data formats, a diagnosis section, and recommendations for further treatment.

During a three-hour feedback session, your clinician will be able to go over the information contained in the report and provide you with a copy of the report.
