Can anyone recommend a great psychiatrist who can deal with my complex 10-yr-old son with ADHD, anxiety, severe emotional regulation challenges, etc? He is on multiple meds like Vyvanse, Lexipro and Intuniv, and I'd like to find a new doc who is responsive and will communicate with me between appts when necessary, and who can handle complex kids with multiple challenges successfully, and that will meet with us for more than 15 minutes at a time. (That's not asking too much, is it??  Should we be seeing a neurologist instead? I'd take recommendations for those as well. We live in Montgomery County, MD... I'm almost at my breaking point with my son and need help ASAP. Thank you.

| Try Healthy Foundations Group in Bethesda. David Driver came very highly recommended for DD with ADHD and anxiety. |

Dr. Alan Zametkin at the Chesapeake ADHD Center in Silver Spring. Very good, will listen to you, appointsment are 30 minutes, but you can schedule 45 minute appointment for a few extra dollars. Communicates by text and will generally respond in minutes to hours.
Don't go to a neurologist, it's not their thing. |

| Same diagnosis- and age- and we love Dr. Zachik in Bethesda. Very responsive and helpful. |
