[QUOTE="SRL, post: 128155, member: 701"] You can post the name of the hospital on the General board and ask people to respond by private messaging if you'd like, but know that it does give away your general location. Since you are seeing possible Hyperlexia another route to go is to contact the nearest Autism Society of America chapter. The parents there would be able to give you the lowdown on the various specialists that would be good to assess in this area. [url]http://www.autism-society.org/[/url] Personally I'd go for the most thorough appointment and only use the triage route if the other way too far out or if things heat up to where it needs immediate attention. In some parts of the country the waiting lists for first time appts are 6 mo to 1 year out so you're fortunate to have the triage option. There's an article in our archives somewhere called Tips for a Successful Evaluation which should be of help. [/QUOTE]
