[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 73254"] When you call the Children's Hospitals are you asking for the behavioral health unit when inquiring about the Multi-Disciplinary evaluation? The person answering the switchboard phone may not have any knowledge of it. Have you tried any University Hospitals? We used a neuropsychologist. I'm not sure what a neuropsychiatrist does and I don't know of anyone on the board that has used one. And, no, a clinical psychologist is not going to be the same. They will do some evaluations and probably ask for you to fill out some information, but it's not the same kind of testing, nor as in depth, as what you get with a neuropsychologist. The neuropsychologist does the in-depth testing and should work with you and the psychologist and/or psychiatrist on a treatment plan. He/she may even refer you for more testing if it's felt that it's required, such as with an Occupational Therapist (OT) or Speech Pathologist. [/QUOTE]
