[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 415432, member: 1550"] I've gone to three NeuroPsychs for my son and we never had MRIs or blood work...he had those done, but by other doctors. Basically, he tested my son in every area of functioning (all of them did) and also observed his behavior such as eye contact, ability to sit still, ability to hold a give-and-take conversation, etc. etc. etc. He got the TOVA test for ADHD and all kinds of similar tests. The first neuropsychologist we went to had worked at Mayo Clinic for ten years and he was awesome. He nailed my son in every way and we saw a big upturn after that. I feel it is well worth it. Before that, we really weren't sure what was going on. These professionals have PhD's in Psychology with extra training in the brain. I find them more accurate than Psychiatrists because psychiatrists usually don't do any testing and often miss neurological differences. [/QUOTE]
