[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 47700, member: 1550"] Ok, I have an issue with the tech performing any tests. How can the neuropsychologist see how your son responds to the tests if she's not there? What is a "tech" anyways? That would bother me. I also don't think she gave you or your son enough time. Looks to me like she only saw him two hours and the tech saw him for an hour. Guess what? That's not enough time. We had a neuropsychologist who had worked at Mayo for ten years, now relocated in Wisconsin. He told us, "Mayo makes mistakes every day, since there are no blood tests. That's why we take time to do the best we can and run every test. Even so, we make mistakes." I thought that was really honest, although we believe he nailed our son, as our son has never been better. However, even under the best of circumstances it is hard to figure out what is wrong with our children, and every diagnosis is a guess on the part of the professional. It does help to take more time and observe the child, in my opinion. Kids go on honeymoons with professionals too, but after twelve hours they pretty much may revert back to themselves. I never heard of anyone BILLING for writing out results. Jeez. Our neuropsychologist wrote us fifteen pages and didn't bill us for that. I hope you get what you need from this woman. [/QUOTE]
