[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I highly recommend Stixrud Group in Silver Spring. I'm sure there are other great groups in the area as well.  My DS was diagnosed with ADHD, inattentive type in 2nd or 3rd grade. We used Dr. Wasserman and she was amazing.  The report (a full neuropsych evaluation) was very thorough. Unfortunately, my son was so off the charts inattentive, that it was not able to be managed without medication. There are a few books she recommended which are great:  "Late, Lost, and Unprepared" and "Smart but Scattered".  Good luck!

Thank you. Should use we just make an appointment outright? He doesn't have a particular pediatrician since we just joined a family practice and tend to see anyone who is available (their doing, not ours).  Any chance they take insurance?[/quote]

The only place that will do a neuropsychological exam and the insurance is KKI in Baltimore or Children's Hospital. They also have a long wait list but sometimes there are cancellations.

Stixrud will cost $2,500-4000 depending on how broad your concerns are and how extensive the testing is to get flesh out your concerns.

You may get some of this back from insurance (we got about $500 of $3000).
