[QUOTE="buddy, post: 486378, member: 12886"] It could very well be a good thing. One difference is that the developmental pediatrician can be your ongoing doctor. Can prescribe medications and really understands kids with developmental conditions and how it affects behaviors. They may have as part of the clinic, use of all of the testing people, like sp. lang, Occupational Therapist (OT), neuropsychologist. So, you should call the clinic and ask. A neuropsychologist is really a tool to get the diagnosis and to help sort out issues. They also can be used yearly to monitor progress and confirm issues, see if things are changing etc. But they do not have ongoing input like therapy etc. THey are wonderful. in my humble opinion. But there are many who do get the same services from dev. pediatrician clinics.... and then there are some who dont get that so really need to research it. [/QUOTE]
