Before Your Appointment
Whether you booked your appointment by phone or through our website, we will already have contacted you to confirm the date and time and to let you know who will be seeing you that day.
You should receive your appointment confirmation by email, SMS, or through the Doctoralia app if you have it installed on your phone. If you have not received any notification, please contact us.
First Day: Welcome and Documentation
On the day of your appointment, we will provide you with the data protection form, which you will be asked to complete and sign. If you have already downloaded and completed it at home, simply bring it with you so we can file it.
If the patient is a minor, an informed consent form must also be completed during the appointment. This form must be signed by both parents or by the legal guardian(s). If you wish to complete it in advance, you can find it in the Child and Adolescent Psychology Services section.
