Re: Does anyone use Dr. Rao in Plano?

[Guest guest]

We just got back from our first visit to Dr. Rao. Very very

impressed. We had the parent meeting first. We (the grandparents)

waited in the waiting room with the child. Then they took him in and

did blood work (not pretty to hear). My son layed down on the table

and wrapped our little one in his arms while they took his blood.

They use a very small needle and it does not hurt them. It mostly

scares them. After it was over our little one said.. " I did it " " I

did it " . He was very proud of himself. He added folinic acid and

B12 to our regiment of omega3 and Enzymes. He sent us home with a

ton of Urine test to perform. All in all we are becoming smarter and

smarter. While in the waiting room we met another couple that had

been coming to Dr. Rao for 7 months. I ask them how they liked the

doctor. The mother said... " He is wonderful " then she told me that

she herself is a GP doctor. That sealed it for me. If a doctor trust

Dr. Rao with her son, I knew he had to be good. Also I understand

that Dr. Rao himself has a son on the spectrum. He referred several

times to " Our Kids " . Hope this helps.
