[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After a long wait, my DC is scheduled for a neuropsych evaluation. I got the information and it seems the doctor does not do most of the testing, but rather an M.A. who helps him. I find that strange for $5000 or so. Is this the normal practice?[/quote] You must be talking about Stixrud. That's how they do it there and it pisses a lot of people off. They pay a lot of money to have their kid evaluated by a PhD, not a student. If this is the practice you're talking about, they have their MAs do a good deal of the testing and grading of the tests - with the doctor diagnosing. DS is going through this process with a very good doctor, she does all of it. None of this farming out to students getting their Masters. You haven't paid yet, you can always change your mind and go elsewhere. [/quote]
