Guest guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hi everybody, I have to take my four year old son for a psychiatric eval. These are my options, does anybody have feedback on any these doctors? I would really appreciate it. Dr. Edwin Gomez (specializes in autism and children), 1601 North Palm Avenue, Pembroke Pines, FL 33026, Dr. Folstein (also specializes in autism and children), 1695 NW 9th Avenue, Miami, FL (University of Miami), Dr. (specializes in children), 5451 University Drive, #102, Coral Springs, FL, I'd really love to hear any experiences you've had! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hi, sorry to say I don't know any of them. However I had my 5 year old evaluated by Dr. Judith Migoya and Dr. from Pediatric Psychology Associates and we had a great experience and results. This could be another option for you. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Just to chime in here as I don’t know if this is well known... A psychiatrist would be consulted if there is discussion of placing a child on a psychotropic medication. They are not usually consulted to just diagnose a condition, particularly an autism spectrum disorder. The psychologists, such as those indicated below, would be best for a thorough evaluation and they are diagnosticians. Other diagnosticians are neurologists and licensed clinical social workers, developmental pediatricians...
