[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 638380, member: 15473"] The problem you most often have is that your pediatrician or regular doctor doesn't really know who does neuro psychiatric evaluations. They know that when they have kids who need stuff like it they send them to Dr x and that usually works. It is hard to get them to understand that you need to see something more specialized than a normal therapist or podc. My suggestion is to call around to the local big hospitals or teaching hospitals and see if they have someone who offers them. You can also google it and then contact the nearest doctors and then quiz them on what they do before making the appointment. I also used my insurance provider and had them give me a list. It was still frustrating because the insurance didn't seem to have a clue what a neuropsychologist evaluation was and kept giving me docs who didn't do it. Finally got an appointment and difficult child ran away to the grands. [/QUOTE]
