Become a patient: consultation services
A consultation at The Center for Eating Disorders consists of:
- A complete diagnostic evaluation.
- Development of a comprehensive treatment plan that incorporates nutrition, medication and/or supplements, cognitive and motivational interventions.
- Development of an interdisciplinary treatment team for ongoing care.
- A written diagnostic evaluation and treatment plan, as well as recommendations for health care practitioners to provide ongoing individualized treatment
For patients in Western New York, our consultation service involves weekly visits for a period of 4 to 6 weeks. Patients from out of the area will come in for a day-long intensive diagnostic evaluation and treatment planning session.
