Capacity Assessments for Informed Decision-Making

Our expert physicians provide comprehensive capacity assessments for individuals facing serious illness or cognitive challenges. Through in-person evaluations, our experienced doctors assess whether a patient has the cognitive ability to understand, appreciate, and reason through medical decisions.

These assessments are crucial in determining if a patient can provide informed consent or if cognitive impairment—such as dementia, stroke, or other neurological conditions—affects their ability to make healthcare choices.

Our assessments help families, healthcare providers, and legal professionals navigate complex medical and ethical decisions with clarity and confidence. Whether confirming a patient’s decision-making capacity or identifying the need for surrogate decision-makers, we ensure that every assessment is conducted with compassion, professionalism, and respect for the patient’s dignity.
