Information for Traveling Patients

Are You Traveling From Other Parts of the Country or Internationally?

At The Neuroscience Center, we understand that seeking mental health services often requires patients to travel from near and far. We are committed to ensuring that your journey to recovery is as seamless and comfortable as possible. To assist our traveling patients (domestic and international), we have compiled a comprehensive guide that covers every aspect of your visit.

Planning your Visit

Before you arrive at The Neuroscience Center, it’s essential to have a clear plan in place to make your visit as stress-free as possible. Here are some key steps to consider:

  • Scheduling Your Appointment: Start by scheduling an appointment with our dedicated team. We offer flexible scheduling options to accommodate your needs.
  • Medical Records Transfer: If you’re transferring from another healthcare provider, make sure to request the transfer of your medical records to ensure continuity of care.
  • Preparing for Your Appointment: Familiarize yourself with what to expect during your appointment and any pre-appointment requirements.

Concierge and Language Assistance

Navigating a new city can be overwhelming, especially if you’re visiting from abroad. Our staff can provide guidance and support throughout your stay, helping you with transportation, local recommendations, and more. If English is not your primary language, we offer language assistance services to ensure effective communication during your visit. 

Paying for Care

Understanding the financial aspect of healthcare is crucial. Our staff can assist you in understanding your payment responsibilities and help you navigate the billing process. You can find more information about payment options here.

Follow-up Care and Services

Recovery often requires ongoing care and support. We will work with you to establish a follow-up plan that suits your needs, whether it’s continued therapy, medication management, or other services. We are committed to your long-term well-being.
