Premier Diagnostic Insights

Comprehensive Insights for Targeted, Faster Recovery
Whole-Person Informed Insights
Many assessments provide helpful observations and fall short of capturing the full complexity needed to guide truly personalized treatment.
Premier Diagnostic Insights (PDI) offers a distinct approach. This intensive, concentrated program spans 7-10 days and integrates medical, psychiatric, psychological, and neuropsychological data to reveal the comprehensive picture behind complex, overlapping symptoms.
Armed with this level of clarity, we eliminate guesswork, delivering precise diagnoses and tailored treatment recommendations from the very beginning.

Beyond the Basics: What Sets PDI Apart
Collaborative, interdisciplinary care
Our physicians, psychologists, and clinical specialists work together in real-time to develop a comprehensive and in-depth diagnostic profile.
Trusted, research-backed testing
We combine medical, psychiatric, neuropsychological, and lifestyle assessments to deliver a full-spectrum view of each individual.
Human-centered approach
We honor the mind-body connection, always keeping the client — not just their symptoms — at the center of every insight.
Comfortable, private environment
Whether residential-style or more structured, every setting is thoughtfully designed to feel welcoming and support comfort, privacy, and recovery.
Ideal Candidates for PDI
Premier Diagnostic Insights supports adults in navigating complex psychiatric symptoms and unclear diagnoses.
A single, integrated clinical narrative developed by coordinated, multidisciplinary teams
A comprehensive profile to guide personalized, future care
Client-centered approach prioritizing engagement and collaboration
One Integrated Narrative, Two Distinct Paths
The Premier Diagnostic Insights client experience offers two flexible options:
- A path within the residential setting, featuring designated housing and supportive amenities
- An alternative approach outside of treatment, utilizing coordinated, structured, external resources
Our clinical team partners with each client to select the path that best suits their unique needs and goals.
“For clients and families seeking clarity after years of uncertainty, this integrated approach delivers diagnostic accuracy and a clear path forward for effective, personalized treatment.”
