The Amen Clinics

Appointment

At the Amen Clinics, we do not take a one-size-fits-all cookie-cutter approach to treatment something that is unfortunately far too common in the mental health field. Instead, we treat each patient as an individual. We use a comprehensive approach to understand our patients and create targeted treatment plans based on their individual brain and unique situation.

A good way to begin is to have a phone conversation with one of our patient care coordinators. During this conversation, we will give you information about our policies, procedures, and the evaluation process. We will also provide information about SPECT imaging, follow-up treatment, and available pricing/payment options.

Most importantly, this conversation will help you determine whether an evaluation with the Amen Clinics is appropriate for your specific situation. In some cases, following this conversation, we may recommend a brief phone consultation with one of our psychiatrists or physician’s assistants prior to making the final decision to proceed with an evaluation at Amen Clinics.

Our goal is to help change your brain so that you may change your life. For this reason, we have dedicated teams of patient care coordinators who look forward to answering your questions about the Amen Clinics and the unique and groundbreaking services we provide for our patients.

Please call 1-888-564-2700 to find out more about our services. Our patient care coordinators are available to answer your questions and help you schedule appointments between 8:00am and 5:00pm PST and EST for the Reston Clinic, Monday through Friday.

How are people referred to Amen Clinics?
People are referred to the Amen Clinics in many different ways, including by their physicians, mental health professionals, family members, friends, or by learning about us through lectures, Dr. Amen’s books or public television specials, and the internet. You can refer yourself or someone you love to the clinic.

What if I don't have a doctor to refer me?
People who are self-referred first speak to one of our Intake Coordinators to make sure we are the appropriate place for help. Sometimes a phone consultation with one of our medical professionals is recommended before an evaluation or scans are scheduled.
