What to expect at the first visit

We allow extra time and can adapt the setting, such as lighting, breaks or a telehealth visit from home, to make the appointment more comfortable. Bring any previous evaluations, school plans and a list of current supports.

Our office is at 215 South Broadway in Salem, NH, about a 30-minute drive east of Nashua. Many Nashua patients also use secure telehealth visits from home, so you do not have to choose between the care you need and the time you have.
