I have a 13 year old that was diagnosed with aspergers 4 years ago. We

are considering medication to help him stay focused in school. His

pediatrician has not favored this avenue. We now feel we need to see an

adolescent psychiatrist or nuerological psychiatrist for further

evaluation. We would appreciate recommendations from someone who has

gone this route. We live in Pompano Beach and don't know who to go to

for this evaluation.

thanks

Check for lithium levels and Vitamin D levels first. He may be deficient and

they are very important for attention and focusing!
