[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, here's what I would do: - get on waiting lists at both KKI and CNMC. - ask your pediatrician to recommend or refer you to a developmental pediatrician. -contact your county's Child Find office. As far as Rene Hackney, she talks a good talk but I personally didn't like her playgroups, they did nothing for my DS. [/quote] I think getting on the waitlists is a good plan. (Personally, my pediatrician wouldn't have a clue as to developmental pediatricians, and depending on how the evaluation goes, you may not need someone on an ongoing basis.) Contacting child find to see if your kid is eligible for OT or speech therapy is helpful. They usually don't make diagnoses. I've known people who have been really pleased with Dr. Hackney, so you may find a personal consultation helpful. You can get behavioral strategies even if you don't have a firm diagnosis.
