What patients are saying

“I was nervous at the outset but the Sunday Health clinical team was very reassuring and put me at ease. Once we got started, it was actually kind of fun! I felt proud of myself and was grateful to get the results.

Now I don’t have to worry so much.”

Mimi
Sunday Health Patient

"The process was both interesting and fun; it included an online brain test and phone and zoom interviews by Sunday Health clinicians who were knowledgeable, informative, friendly, and very very patient."

Brigid H.
Sunday Health Patient

"With a high risk for dementia, I had a lot of trepidation around cognitive testing. But once I understood the holistic approach of Sunday Health, I worked up the courage to take advantage of their offering. I was impressed that each touch point is efficient, respectful and personalized.

The opportunity to discuss my results at length with a very astute and experienced neurologist was very valuable. And the plan they created for me provides a clear roadmap for cognitive health."

Jeanne
Sunday Health Patient

I recently attended a cognitive screening session with Sunday Health. Totally impressed with the professionalism of the staff and the information shared by the clinician. The initial screening test was easy to understand and do. They were very helpful in responding to my request for additional information and possible referral for a relative out of their treatment area. I would readily refer family and friends to them if their services were needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Sunday Health?

Sunday Health is a medical practice dedicated to preventive, diagnostic, and ongoing cognitive care (memory and thinking abilities)  for older adults. Our experienced clinicians provide holistic care and support for brain health, empowering you to maintain cognitive function and independence as you age.

We’re a bit different from your local neurologist’s office. At Sunday Health, you receive virtual care (in-person appointments available at our Vienna, VA location) from a dedicated care team, including neurologists, geriatric nurse practitioners and care navigators. No long wait times. No rushed visits. 

Call us today at (571) 517-1564 to learn more about becoming a new patient! We accept Medicare Part B and select commercial insurance plans.

Where does Sunday Health provide care?

We primarily deliver care via live video (Zoom) and phone calls so that you can speak with our clinicians from the comfort and privacy of your own home. All services are provided through secure, HIPAA-compliant platforms, accessible to individuals with varying levels of technological skills.

Our brain tests and assessments are research-backed and clinically validated. They can be conducted online without compromising quality and accuracy.

In the Northern Virginia area? We are now offering in-person appointments at 8320 Old Courthouse Road, Suite 401 Vienna, Virginia, 22182.

Are these services covered by insurance?

We currently accept Medicare Part B (also known as Original Medicare), Medicare Supplemental (Medigap), Medicare Advantage under most major plans, and other insurance, including Aetna, Anthem, CareFirst, and Cigna, for patients in DC, MD, and VA.

If our services are in-network with your insurance plan, there are no extra out-of-pocket costs beyond your standard co-pay.

We also offer self-pay options which you can explore here.

What can I expect as a patient?

Get Started: Your initial visit with Sunday Health starts with a 15-minute welcome phone call with our care navigator. She will collect basic information and schedule your first video visit with one of our experienced clinicians.  She will also send you links to online exercises that we will ask you to complete in advance of your first video visit.

Check Your Memory and Thinking: Our experienced clinicians will ask you a series of questions and administer various tests of your thinking and memory.  Your answers and test results will help us establish a baseline of your cognitive function. This is important for future comparison and to identify any problems early.  

Receive a Thorough Assessment: Our doctors and nurse practitioners will  spend time discussing with you the results of their evaluation. You will not be rushed. We will take the time to understand your family's situation by asking many questions and will address all of your questions and concerns.

Help Protect Your Memory: We'll develop a personalized brain health plan with you — tailored to your goals, preferences, and ongoing needs (depending on diagnosis, if any). You’ll receive more than just “eat better,” and “exercise more often.” The plan will incorporate an evaluation of your medical history, current symptoms and medications as well as current challenges. We will  offer actionable suggestions for preserving and nurturing your brain health.

Why the name "Sunday Health"?

Our name embodies warmth, preparation, and optimism. Sundays are often spent joyfully with loved ones, and at the same time, they can also bring anxiety about the week ahead.

Similarly, cognitive concerns can showcase the love among family and friends who often act as tireless care partners to individuals living with Mild Cognitive Impairment or dementia, and they can generate anxiety as individuals worry that their memory or thinking skills aren’t what they used to be.

That’s why Sunday Health’s approach integrates clinical expertise, education, and emotional support to empower individuals and families.
