[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get an appointment with the person you want. It is not worth it to see someone else sooner. I have done this with other doctors and regretted it later. NPs have a small fraction of the training doctors do and I actually find it offensive that they did not tell you it's a NP.[/quote] +1 NPs aren't specialists in the same way a developmental pediatrician (or a child psychologist) is, and you want a specialist. Particularly in a case where what's going on isn't obvious--and your gut may well be right, OP--you want someone with the expertise and sense of context to really help. As much as you don't want someone minimizing any problems, you also don't want someone to exaggerate them, either. Good luck.[/quote]
