About NCS
Who We Are
NCS has a team of highly qualified, compassionate, and experienced staff. Each patient is treated like a member of our family. We invite you to experience individualized, compassionate, and exceptional care. The consultation process is simple. We offer efficient scheduling for exams (expedited scheduling is available upon request). The consultation process can be accomplished via telephone (858) 652-9668 or HIPPA compliant fax (760) 230-2206. 24 hours a day and 7 days per week. We are experienced providers with 19 years or more of clinical experience. EXPERIENCE MATTERS.
We approach each case in a highly comprehensive and individualized manner. In short, experience matters and we take your health care as seriously as you do. We look forward to providing a level of care that exceeds your expectations.
All NCS providers are board certified (ABPP-CN) and Diplomates of the American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology. Board certification through the American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology is the pinnacle achievement within the specialty. There is a significant difference in the background, training, and clinical skill of those who’ve achieved board certification just as there is in any board certified medical specialty. Ensure your provider is a board certified specialist through ABPP-CN.
