[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 529680, member: 11847"] I am NO expert but have been exposed to some info when trying to understand and diagnosis V's issues. I knew Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) can do screenings (did not know Occupational Therapist (OT) could do screenings as well) but if you want a firm diagnosis you need to find an audiologist specialized in Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). Treatment can fall under an Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) and/or Occupational Therapist (OT) though. You son is old enough to do a full range of testing witha specialized audiologist. The audiologist should then recommend the right treatment for his specific deficits. I'm sure our dear friend Buddy will give you more detail on what the report means. I'd hate to give you wrong info or less than perfect explanation. If you want, I cam pm you the info of an online support group for Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). The group is organized by a very reputable double certified Audiologist/Speech Language Pathologist (SLP). My understanding is that Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) is very treatable and manageable, so I would see this finding as good news. [/QUOTE]
