The neuropsychological evaluation at The Kahane Center includes approximately 10 hours of testing done over 2-3 days with your child. It includes an initial consultation and final feedback session for the parents with one of our neuropsychologists and Dr. Kahane, as well as a comprehensive written report with the details of our findings, diagnostic impressions, and specific concrete recommendations for all spheres of your child’s life based on the evaluation.
