Will my child or I get better from your ADD/ADHD treatment?

Most patients treated with EEG Neurofeedback experience mild to profound change. Because we are a medical facility and provide more services than most clinicians or researchers, we treat a greater range of patients. We handle some very difficult cases. While some of the most resistant cases we accept might have a reduced chance for improvement, we feel the effort is clearly warranted.

Some of the drugs which doctors prescribe for ADD/ADHD have not been adequately studied and the safety and long-term effects of some of these drugs are unknown. Some physicians prescribe these medications liberally, giving high doses to severe ADD/ADHD patients. With this in mind, it is necessary to take a stand for those tough cases - despite that doing so may lower our success rates. These patients have little other choice for safe and effective treatment. Our commitment is to medical care - not statistics.

This commitment makes our work more difficult, and also more rewarding. After we have completed the initial evaluation, we will discuss your probability for success with you. If at some point during treatment we feel that prognosis has changed, one of the directors will meet with you to discuss your case and decide how to proceed. This, however, has not happened often in our experience with thousands of ADD/ADHD patients. We do not want to provide hope where there is none. We also do not want to deny hope where we feel it might be called for, especially since our treatment has worked for so many who have failed to find hope elsewhere. As a medical facility, with the option of choosing drug therapy, our years of scientific and clinical knowledge lead us to choose this treatment over the other choices.
