[quote=Anonymous]A medical diagnosis can only be made by a medical professional. As an SLP in early intervention in the 90's when autism was on the rise, I could only describe behaviors as related to language development and suggest that families visit their pediatrician and share my evaluation, hoping that the description of behaviors would point the doctors to an appropriate medical diagnosis so that all the professionals could work together in the kid's best interest. The truth is that a diagnosis does not necessarily change how I work with and interact with children. [/quote]
