Specializes in Pediatrics - Developmental and Behavioral

Ask for referral to : a developmental/behavioral pediatrician to understand if your child has Intellectual Disability +/- Autistic Spectrum Disorder, CP, vision/hearing impairments or Specific Learning Disorders. After a history, school MDT results, physical & neurodevelopmental exams, the DBPede may evaluate for genetic & other medical causes & refer to a child (neuro)psychologist for standardized tests.
