Patient Appointments

Preparing for Your Appointment

Choosing a specialist like Dr. Patton to supervise your overall healthcare is essential. An open relationship can be a powerful factor in maintaining your physical and emotional well-being for the long term. Good communications will assist with the appropriate health and medication regiments so you can feel and function better despite your current condition.

During Your Visit

New patients will need to complete a medical intake questionnaire, which is available to download in advance. The questionnaire will ask for details on your health history, the condition you are being referred for, and any other conditions for which you are being treated. New patient consults are approximately 30-60 minutes and will include a thorough neurological exam. Follow up exams will take approximately 15-30 minutes.

Understanding Your Role

Only you know what is going on in your body on a day-to-day basis. Your role is to provide your doctor information about your health history, medications and symptoms, and to report any specific changes in your condition since your last medical appointment.
