Air Traffic Controller (ATC) Tier 2 Evaluations

Dr. Sutton conducts evaluations with individuals who are in the process of applying to be Air Traffic Controllers (ATCs) and who have been referred for a Tier 2 Evaluation.

Evaluations may include measurement of personality and emotional functioning and/or neurocognitive functioning.  The specific domains measured will depend on your specific case, as well as on the requirements set forth by the FAA.

The first step in the evaluation process is typically an introductory phone call to discuss the evaluation process and schedule the evaluation.  You will then be enrolled in our patient portal, through which you will complete new patient paperwork and receive an extensive Personal History Questionnaire.  The Personal History Questionnaire will allow you an opportunity to gather necessary information regarding your current and historical functioning and provide this information to Dr. Sutton prior to your evaluation.

The evaluation will be conducted in-person with Dr. Sutton in her office in Hampstead, North Carolina (located less than 15 miles from Wilmington International Airport).  The evaluation will be conducted across the span of either one or two days, depending on (1) what neurocognitive domains are required to be measured by the FAA and (2) the client's preference.  You may find information about nearby lodging here.

All services are provided directly by Dr. Sutton.  Please contact us to learn more information or to discuss scheduling an evaluation.  We look forward to working with you!
