Neurosurgery new patient form, handled by the AI Doctor avatar
AI Doctor, a real-time AI healthcare assistant avatar, asks the questions on a neurosurgery new patient form in the patient's own language, strictly following the practice's instructions.
- Intake before the visit. Patients answer online before they arrive, or at a kiosk when they check in.
- Answers ready for the clinician. Clinicians see what the patient said before the visit starts.
- Less workload at the front desk. Staff spend less time handing out forms and entering answers by hand.
- Key details at a glance. The care team sees what matters up front and decides who needs attention first.
The form becomes a natural conversation: patients answer by talking, in their own words. AI Doctor is an information and patient-assistance interface. It collects answers for the care team to review. It doesn't diagnose, triage, or give treatment advice.

Who completes a neurosurgery new patient form, and when?
The patient, before the first visit. The Stony Brook packet asks patients who could not complete it ahead of time to arrive 30 minutes early.
What does the patient bring to the first visit?
The Stony Brook letter lists scan films or CDs, earlier nerve testing reports, and reports of earlier surgery for the condition. It also lists the completed forms and insurance information.

Yes. The Stony Brook form asks which activities the patient can no longer do, whether the problem affects sleep, and whether the patient is off work.
Is there a neurosurgery new patient form template?
The sample questions on this page show a typical set. The Stony Brook packet also has a body diagram where the patient marks where pain is felt and what it feels like.
What happens after the form is completed?
The provider reviews the packet and discusses it with the patient at the visit. AI Doctor only collects the answers beforehand; it does not assess symptoms.

No. It collects information for the care team. It doesn't diagnose, triage, or recommend treatment.
Can patient answers stay on our own servers?
Yes. RAVATAR offers on-prem deployment: the platform can run inside your own perimeter, so patient answers stay there. RAVATAR complies with GDPR and the EU AI Act.
