Guest guest Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 My son has high functioning autism and OCD. His OCD issues are more of a problem than his autism this past year. He is 13 years old and has bad thoughts that make him worry unrealistically. Should he be treated by a neurologist who specializes in OCD or a pediatric behaviorial doctor who specializes in autism? My son has been treated by the same psychiatrist and counseling center for the last two years. Should we stay put because they know him well or make a move to one of the experts I mentioned above? If you say expert, which expert should prescribe his medication - the neurologist with OCD expertise or the ped/behaviorial expert in autism? Thank you.
