I am looking for a good child psychiatrist who specializes in working with kids with special needs. I have a 7 y/o son with DS and some behavioral issues and I think he may possibly be experiencing some depression, too. We see a really good developmental pediatrician for the behavioral issues and have just started with a behavioral therapist but I feel like there is still something else going on that the developmental pediatrician isn't addressing. We live in the Rockville area but could travel further to see somebody good. Thanks.

I'd be interested in who you see as developmental pediatrician and behaviorist. We're also looking for a child psychiatrist too.

We see Dr. George Capone at Kennedy Krieger. He heads the DS Program there and is also does a lot of DS research. We have been really happy with him and he has a great research coordinator who is really responsive to calls and emails.
