[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely neuropsych. Ask for recommendations here based on where you live and you can figure this out this school year if you start now and can afford the $6-8k for testing. If you can’t afford that, it will be an extra year of waiting for somewhere that takes insurance. So if there is any way to swing private pay, do that. Most places have interest free payment plans so you don’t have to front the cash. [/quote] Yes schedule a neuropsych test everywhere with a a waitlist Immediately get a reading comp tutor to spend time twice a week with said child. They may figure things out faster and sooner than doctors. I would still explore a stimulant adhd route. Ability to focus and have stamina to read (and learn) 2+ hours a night is very important.
