A member asked:
What kind of medical and mental health professionals and treatments can help you with dyslexia and readability difficulties?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Learning Disability: I am not sure if you are asking for an adult or for a child. For a child, he/she should be evaluated by a developmental pediatrician or a school Child Study Team to confirm the diagnosis. With their recommendations, the school can provide special educational services to assist with reading and writing. For an adult, you may want to contact your local community center to inquire about help.
