[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there doctors in the DC area to avoid when getting an evaluation? Are there particular doctors who are quick on the draw to diagnose ASD? What age is best for visiting a developmental pediatrician and or child psych for an evaluation to determine speech delay or autism?[/quote] You may want to try Dr. Shapiro, if anyone. Our speech therapist has worked closely with him several times and speaks highly of him. He's pretty well regarded on here. You'd have to see him before age 4. I don't find a developmental ped very helpful in our situation. The SPL does much better reports and gets my child. She's been far more accurate and helpful.[/quote]
