The Initial Consultation

The the initial consultation is an opportunity for you and Dr. Palmer to decide if you can work together. If Dr. Palmer determines that she is not the best person to treat your problem she will help you find someone who is.

Past Psychiatric Records

If you have been in psychiatric care in the past it would be helpful to provide records. Typed summaries are ideal. Please bring all available information to your first visit or fax to 410-583-2949 as soon as possible beforehand. For your convenience, an Authorization to Receive or Disclose Information form can be downloaded here for you to sign and give to your previous doctor(s).

New Patient Forms

All new patients are asked to please:

  • Read the Notice of Privacy Practices document.
  • Print and complete the Patient Information and Consent form.
  • Print and complete the New Patient Information form.
Insurance Reimbursement

Dr. Palmer does not participate with any insurance plans. If you plan to submit claims for reimbursement, please find out if your insurance requires a Uniform Treatment Plan (UTP). If so, please print the UTP for Dr. Palmer to complete during your first visit.

Please bring all completed forms to your first appointment.
