What to expect
The Unearth Root Cause study has 3-4 steps.
1. Screening - You’ll complete a brief survey about how certain symptoms may be affecting your daily life.
2. Physical Tests - If you’re eligible and agree to participate, you’ll complete a series of physical tests at home and record your results. A UCSF-affiliated, board-certified neurologist will review the results, and we’ll send you their report. This report will be helpful as you work with your own doctor to find the reason for the symptoms you’re experiencing. If you don’t have a physician, we may be able to send you a list of available physicians in your area.
3. Follow-up - If you meet the study criteria, we’ll send you follow-up emails for up to 8 months to learn how it’s going with your doctor. Other requirements may include uploading your medical records that show your follow up care and participating in a brief follow-up interview.
