Pediatric Neurologist Recommendations (Montgomery County)

[Anonymous]

We are looking for a good pediatric neurologist in Montgomery County. We would prefer one that can not only prescribe meds, but can also work with parents and children with issues related to ADHD. We have one child with severe ADHD that has some language and social skills deficits and a second with milder attention issues. We need a doctor that can work with kids on executive functioning, social skills, and emotional issues related to ADHD.

Sylvia Edelstein fits the bill and we liked her a lot.

We ended up switching to a psychiatrist, though, due to anxiety issues.

In my experience of working with several neurologists, they only work on concussions, seizures, tumors, etc and refer you to people for Exec Functioning (behaviorists) or psychiatrists (med)

I feel like this may be the way to go. I feel like there's no one-stop shops.
