[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would start with a speech eval. Dev peds are not specialists in speech and language and [b]often misdiagnose. [/b]Children's speech clinic ignored our concerns. If you do not have insurance, maryland is a good suggestion but you may have to wait a few months as fall semester is ending. [/quote] Developmental pediatricians are extremely qualified to diagnose speech delays. It's unfortunate that you had a bad experience but don't create a sweeping and untrue generalization based on your sole experience.[/quote] They are generalists for special needs. They will confirm there is an issue and send you to an speech pathologist. A speech pathologist can diagnose and treat. A developmental ped is good for referrals only. [/quote]
