Ask the Doc consult is a nonpatient consultation that is ideal for parents, school personnel or treatment professionals who are interested in a Question/Answer type consultation.
This format is ideal for:
A. Parent are in active treatment with a local therapist but have unanswered questions or need more advice.
B. School personnel who have specific questions related to a student with SM.
C. Treatment professionals who are working directly with a child or teen with SM and are in need of advice on treatment strategies and direction.
The Ask the Doc format includes a the assessment of a brief questionnaire. There are no reports or summaries following the Ask the Doc consultation; however, handouts may be provided.
What if after I choose the Ask the Doc initial format, I decide to pursue regular treatment?
This happens often. Families will need to fill out the SM-CDQ, the SM School Eval form and perhaps other recommended assessment forms. Depending upon what was accomplished during the Ask the Doc consultation, your clinician will, at the minimum, need to fully evaluate your child. Patients are billed via an hourly rate.
