The medical records that Dr. Boles finds to be the most helpful are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sub-specialist evaluations (e.g. neurologist, gastroenterologist, geneticist)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain hospital records (e.g. admission, discharge, operative, sub-specialist consultation)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Specific testing (e.g. DNA\/genetic, biochemical\/metabolic, biopsy, MRI, endoscopy)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most-recent laboratory results (e.g. CBC, chemistry panel, coenzyme Q10, carnitine and\/or amitriptyline blood levels)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Growth chart for height and weight<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Send the medical records, preferably by email, and at least a week ahead of the visit. Dr. Boles has a tree-friendly paper-less office. Paper records can be reviewed at the visit, but will take time away from the visit. In regards to imaging studies like MRIs, please do not send the actual films, but instead sent the written interpretation.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]MEDICAL RECORD REVIEWS WITHOUT A VISIT: Dr. Boles does not perform medical records reviews because he finds that talking to the family gives him far more clarity than even the most extensive medical records.
