[quote=Anonymous]We use Dr. Dan Shapiro - Initial consultation was just for parents, an hour long meeting where we talked about our concerns and our family in general. Before this meeting we had to fill out a bunch of forms about our kid online and have DC's teacher fill out forms/questionnaires about DC at school which we brought with us to the meeting. DC was observed at school and Dr spoke with teachers. DC was brought to Dr's office play area where Dr "played" with child and before this observed my interaction with child. Preliminary report is emailed to parents. Diagnosis, suggested interventions, etc. Parents have meeting with doctor w/o child to discuss findings. Very very helpful and has made school a great experience for DS. I don't care about the label, DS has AS/ASD, as long as he's getting the supports and help he needs. [/quote]
