[quote=Anonymous]Oh wait I do have one rec you could try. Dr. Pamela Compart - Developmental ped. We did not work with her so I can't speak personally, but she was recommended by a mom in my neighborhood with kids with ADHD/ASD. I called her maybe a year and a half ago and left a message, she seriously called me back like an hour later I was amazed. At the time we ended up not pursuing for a variety of reasons I don't need to go into (that had nothing to do with her). But thought it was worth sharing since she was willing to try to get us in. She practices functional medicine so I will be honest I don't know how legit but she can prescribe (board certified MD) and is in Columbia MD.

I also wouldn't waste too much time on the regular pediatrician. There is no way in any reality any pediatrician will be able to provide what you need. That doesn't mean what your current ped is doing is ok, absolutely not. Most could provide much better care but it just isn't worht your precious resources to be working on that. Work on the psychiatrist and other mental health professionals that you need in your corner.

Final rec - if it is at all possible for you, just right now say we're going to throw a lot of money at this and pay for out of pocket providers as needed if they are the right fit and then go back to our insurance when things settle down. [/quote]
