[quote=Anonymous]I suspect my 1st grader has ADHD and would like to start exploring medication. She was identified as autistic when she was 3 YO, but wasn't evaluated at the time for ADHD because of her age. Two questions: (1) Do you have a recommendation for a pediatric psychiatrist in DC or MD? (2) Given the full clinical psychologist evaluation she underwent for ASD-1, do we need a full ADHD eval from a clinical or developmental neuropsychologist to start working with a psychologist/discussing meds, or is a parent/teacher self report sufficient? I would prefer to not spend thousands of dollars again to get an ADHD diagnosis, which seems fairly obvious given her behavior and that she has ASD-1. [/quote]
