hi
so i've been told by various doctor's that a neuro pysch evaluation. is only as good as the doctor who reviews the findings. this makes me nervous especially since the columbia hospital thing didn't work out due to their lack fo competence.
i do understand that they are certain standarized tests that they will give her. yet the first parent interview whereas with columbia would of been 3 hours with me alone so i could give them complete symptoms,etc i'm being told by the new neuropysch that i have to bring my difficult child with me for it (due to insurance reasons) for hte interview.
so all in all i'm disappointed was really hoping to get some clarity here and was totally looking forward to columbia yet now it's all changed.
i know many of you have done this before. do you find that you need to get several neuropysch evaluation's or just one?
i was looking forward to doing it in a controlled setting, etc. 3 days away at hospital. this will be done now while she's bouncing in and out of school.
we're getting tired at home we really are. she's in our bed everynight, gave her chlonidine one night because she was flying last night was 1 a.m. it's so not good for her the little sleep she's getting.
thanks
