[quote=Anonymous]OP I'm going through this now. I don't know where'd you are. But my son is going to Quince Orchard Psychotherapy and has just started testing. The majority of it is covered by insurance. I went through  participating providers with the insurance (Carefirst Blue Cross Blue Shield). These exams can run thousands of dollars and we don't have that. So I'm just putting out a different resource for you. We both really like his doctor. And she's very thorough.   They have a waiting list but it only took about a month to get in.

He was initially diagnosed by his pediatrician and put on Concerta. He's been doing a lot better on that, but he is losing weight. We are doing the full exam to identify any potential learning disabilities and also because I think he has anxiety, and we all want to figure out how those things are impacting him.

What convinced me to take him in the first place is that the head of school said he knows what he's supposed to do but he can't make his brain and body do it. And that's very frustrating for him. He's only been on the meds for 3 weeks but he's a lot happier. [/quote]
