Prepare for Your Visit

Welcome to the WashU Medicine Movement Disorders Center! We are delighted to have you as our new patient and extend our warmest greetings. We understand that seeking specialized medical care can often be overwhelming, so we want to introduce our highly skilled team dedicated to providing you with the best possible care.

Our practice emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach, collaborating with experts in neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology and more. This ensures a comprehensive and personalized care plan tailored to your needs. Our clinical team will work closely with you to incorporate these opportunities into your individualized care plan.

We are committed to advancing research and finding new treatments for movement disorders. As our patient, you have opportunities to participate in world-class research studies, gaining access to cutting-edge therapies and potential future treatments. We believe in empowering our patients to make informed decisions, and we will provide all necessary information and support to help you decide if research participation is right for you.

To optimize your first visit and long-term care, we encourage you to connect with your care team through our secure online patient portal, MyChart (MyPatientChart.org). By completing the necessary forms and providing relevant information prior to your visit, your care team can review your medical history and prepare for a productive and efficient appointment.

One week prior to your appointment, you will receive a notification to e-check in, including a health history questionnaire. We recommend completing this process as soon as possible, or at least four days before your scheduled visit, to maximize the benefits of your appointment. This allows our team to address your concerns more effectively and provide the highest quality of care.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need further assistance. We are here to ensure your journey with us is smooth and comfortable. We look forward to meeting you and working together to improve your well-being.
