Your reason for being here shapes what we look for in your results — and what we do about them. Choose the line that sounds most like you.

The average primary care appointment runs 18 minutes. That is the national average — and it is not a criticism of primary care physicians, who are doing their best inside a system that was not designed for complexity. It is simply a fact: 18 minutes is not enough time to administer a validated cognitive battery, review nine domains of results, work through 45 research-identified risk factors, and build a meaningful, personalized plan.
The Brain Health Blueprint was built around a different premise entirely. An evaluation first — on your own time, at your own pace. Then an unhurried physician consultation. Then a written plan, and a second call to walk through it together. Three touchpoints, because one appointment was never going to be enough.
The Brain Health Blueprint is a three-touch service: a self-administered cognitive evaluation, a comprehensive physician consultation, and a written plan reviewed with you on a follow-up call. Here is what is included at $599:
The CNS Vital Signs assessment generates an auto-scored report across nine cognitive domains, benchmarked against age-matched normative data. Color-coded and immediately readable — by you and by Dr. Lowe before your consultation.
Sample CNS Vital Signs report. Individual results vary. All reports are reviewed with you personally during your physician consultation.
Insurance reimbursement models are built around 18-minute appointments. Research confirms it: that is the national average for a primary care visit. Eighteen minutes is not enough time to administer a validated cognitive battery, review nine domains of results, work through 45 risk factors, and build a personalized plan. It is not enough time to do this work properly.
By operating outside the insurance system, this service answers to you — not to a payer. The consultation is not cut short by a clock, and the plan is built around your results, not around a billing code.

CNS Vital Signs is a validated, peer-reviewed computerized neuropsychological battery used in clinical research and physician practices worldwide. It measures nine cognitive domains: composite memory, verbal memory, visual memory, processing speed, reaction time, complex attention, cognitive flexibility, executive function, and psychomotor speed. Results are auto-scored and compared against age-matched normative data — giving you an objective picture of where you stand, not just how you feel.
No. The Brain Health Blueprint is a health assessment and educational consultation — not a diagnostic evaluation and not a substitute for clinical care. It provides an objective picture of your cognitive performance and a structured review of modifiable risk factors. If results raise concerns that may warrant further neurological evaluation, Dr. Lowe will discuss next steps with you during the consultation.
Most consultations run about an hour, and the plan review call that follows runs about thirty minutes. Neither is cut short by a clock — this service operates outside an insurance-driven appointment model precisely so that it does not have to be.
Within two business days of your consultation, and usually the next day. It arrives by email with your full assessment report and your copy of the book. You will have it in hand well before the review call, so you can read it without anyone talking at you and come to the call with questions.
Bring what you have, even if it is out of date, and we will still have a full consultation. A current medication list with doses makes it substantially more useful — your pharmacy will print one while you wait. Recent bloodwork helps too, but nothing is cancelled or diminished without it.
Absolutely — and they are encouraged to. Family members and caregivers often provide important context, and their presence means the plan can be supported at home from day one.
Yes, and longitudinal tracking is one of the most clinically valuable aspects of the CNS Vital Signs platform. Repeating the assessment annually or biannually lets you track changes over time, which is far more informative than any single snapshot. Re-testing is a separate service at its own fee; the $599 covers one assessment, one consultation, one written plan, and the call to review it.
This service is not billed through insurance and does not generate insurance-compatible clinical documentation. Payment is collected at the time of booking.
The Brain Health Blueprint is a health assessment and educational consultation. It does not establish a traditional physician-patient clinical treatment relationship and is not a substitute for care from your primary physician or a treating neurologist. If you have active medical concerns, please consult a licensed physician in your state.
