Multi-disciplinary Assessment

Need a Professional Opinion?

Multi-disciplinary Assessments are coordinated by Dr. Farshad Nassiri, Chair of our Medical Advisory Committee (MAC), and require a referral from your doctor.

How ANAC Helps

The referral process for an MDA is available to anyone. As a benefit of ANAC membership, we provide personalized Patient Navigation services to help you:

  • Understand the referral requirements
  • Ensure your submission is complete and followed through
  • Access advocacy and support at every step

Please note that all submissions are triaged, and while timelines may vary, we are here to help you move forward.
