We are now able to accurately assess attention deficit disorder through a testing system through Creyos (formerly Cambridge Brain Institute). This Test is available for patients at a very affordable cost and the fee is waived for Medicaid patients.

The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS v1.1 – Part A) is a multipurpose instrument for determining the severity of ADHD symptoms in adults, while also allowing for the monitoring of symptom changes and effects of treatment over time. These six questions are the most predictive of symptoms consistent with ADHD. Part B assesses Planning, Spatial Working Memory, Attention, Response Inhibition (Focus during interference), and Sustained Attention Span (Sustain processing in repetitive, boring or distracting situations). This test can be used pre and post treatment to indicate improvements.  

Dementia

For older patients, we also have available a dementia screening test. This is especially useful for at risk patients, serves as a baseline for future risk comparison and those who have a fear of developing dementia. This test is more affordable and is very economical, costing thousands of dollars less than a thorough dementia screening.  

These tests are offered in our office on a computer and take about 20 to 30 minutes to complete. Please talk to our office staff to schedule your appointment today.
