To Make An Appointment

Please call the Neurobehavior and Memory Health Services Clinic
at 312-695-9627.

Our staff will be happy to help you schedule an appointment. Please call 312-695-9627. At the time of scheduling your initial appointment, you will be asked to obtain all pertinent previous medical records for the patient before the appointment date. Once the appointment is scheduled, we will send out a patient information packet to provide you with more information about what to expect as well as other information as to what the patient should bring to the appointment.

If our office does not have the patient's previous medical records before the scheduled appointment, it is likely that we will have to cancel the appointment.

Our neurologist will need a refferral from a PCP or neurologist.

Information on Obtaining Previous Medical Records

Due to the HIPAA laws, many medical offices and facilities require a written request before they will release a patient's medical history. You may use the following medical release to send to physicians or facilities that have your pertinent records.

If you are unsure about what records may be useful, typically they may include:

  • Medical Notes from neurologists, psychiatrists or family physicians
  • Previous neuropsychological testing reports
  • Laboratory reports such as:
    • EEG
    • Blood tests
    • Sleep study
    • MRI on CD of the brain
    • CT on CD of the brain
    • PET on CD of the brain
    • SPECT on CD of the brain
    • Current list of all medications including vitamins or asprine

All records and films can be mailed to:

Neurobehavior
ATTN: Jill Verhagen
675 N. St. Clair Street
Galter 20-100
Chicago, IL 60611

If the records are 20 pages or less, they can be faxed to Jill Verhagen at (312) 695-6072.
