[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 181415, member: 2423"] Dara, I'm confused. I thought you liked the neuro who was treating Sammy. What was the purpose in seeing a psychiatrist? Psychiatrists sometimes prescribe medications for kids with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), but they aren't generally the front-line health professionals for diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) is best diagnosed by a multi-disciplinary team at a children's or university teaching hospital, a pediatric neuropyschologist, a developmental pediatrician or a hospital-based autism clinic.
