Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) Program at Inova
At Inova, we offer the following treatment options for adults.
FND Neuropsychology Clinic: This involves consultation and individual therapy for people with all types of FND.
Functional Movement Disorders Interdisciplinary Clinic (FMD IDC): This involves an interdisciplinary evaluation and rehabilitation program for people with functional movement disorders (FMD). Our core team includes a movement disorders neurologist, neuropsychologist, and physical therapists with specialized expertise in FMD care.
During your visit, you will meet individually with 3 providers over a 3-hour period. This includes:
– Movement disorders neurologist – Dr. Mick Reedy
– Neuropsychologist – Dr. Emmi Scott
– Physical therapist – Ashlie Williams or Abi Ortmeyer
This comprehensive assessment allows our team to confirm your diagnosis, understand the factors contributing to your condition, and collaboratively design a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals and needs.
After your visit, we will create an individualized treatment plan based on your goals, lifestyle, and functional needs. The treatment program may involve working with:
– Physical therapists (FND-trained therapists at all 5 Inova hospital-based rehabilitation departments)
– Occupational therapists
– Speech therapists
– Neuropsychologists or rehabilitation psychologists
Important information before you call to schedule an appointment
If you are coming from outside of Inova, we will need a referral from a physician and a copy of your neurology records.
Referrals/records can be faxed to 571-472-4201.
Once the referral has been sent, then you can call for scheduling at 571-472-4167.
Alternatively, if the referring physician has access to Inova charts through EpicCare Link, they can put in the referral to neurology on Epic, then select FND clinic.
