[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 652562, member: 805"] I am not real familiar with state supported insurance plans but around here, it takes at least 30 days to get an appointment with a new pediatric doctor - whether that doctor is a therapist, a psychiatrist, a neuropsychiatrist, etc. It's worth have your son completely evaluated no matter the time or hassle. If you are near an area with a teaching hospital, that's a good place to begin or perhaps a close children's hospital. In regards to the school, does your son have an IEP? It appears you may have a long battle with the school -- the law specifies that your son, if qualified for services based on his disability (or disabilities) must be educated the the school system has to find placement for him AND provide transportation. You might want to look into finding an advocate to work with you to make sure his educational rights are protected. Welcome to little corner of the world! You will find some wise warrior parents to guide and support you. Sharon [/QUOTE]
