The Neuropsychology Service
Michigan Avenue Neuropsychologists is a private practice that provides consultative outpatient services and independent medical evaluations for adult and geriatric cases involving known or suspected cognitive or neuropsychiatric deficits.
The Service uses standardized instruments and testing equipment that are the most current and accepted in the field of neuropsychology. The staff includes an accomplished group of clinical neuropsychologists with strong academic and teaching backgrounds, extensive research experience, and publication contributions to the scientific literature. They offer expertise in adult and geriatric cases, and have specialized expertise in the application of neuropsychological assessment to the forensic setting. Consultation in pediatric neuropsychology cases is also available. Psychiatrists are available on site for collaboration if necessary. Evaluations of Spanish-speaking clients are conducted with bilingual clinicians and interpreters and employ the most up-to-date measures normed on Hispanic populations. Our laboratory additionally has access to court-certified interpreters for most other languages.
