Autism Evaluations (ADOS-2 Gold Standard):

I offer a comprehensive medical/physical and ADOS evaluation for families with exceptional children, specifically those with concerns regarding autism spectrum. If your child is different from their same-aged peers, is struggling to behave, make friends or succeed, and you are a parent looking for help with a diagnosis and recommendations, you have come to the right place! I am generally able to see children within about 2-3 weeks.

What to expect:

  • Call to schedule your in-person Appointment.
  • Complete the Parent questionnaire and the MCHAT form and email back to admin@pediatricpod.com
  • We will then set up a 20–30-minute Parent interview via telemedicine to discuss your child’s medical, developmental, and behavioral history and your concerns. This Appointment needs to be before the in-person appointment.
  • In-person Appointment: 40-60 minutes: Child interaction and standardized evaluation using ADOS -2. If your child allows, we may do a physical exam.
  • About 2-3 weeks later, we will set up a 20-minute video call to review results and recommendations.
  • You can collect a copy of the Report, MCHAT, DSM 5 criteria, ADOS -2 score and Recommendations after the follow up video call.
