Re: [Re: Kaiser Insurance rookie here needs advice]

March 30, 2001

Hi,

I would like to comment too. My son was first sent to a neor. We have two in

the East Bay, both at Walnut Creek Kaiser. It takes about 6 months to get an

appointment.

When I was willing to try some meds for sleep etc, we were sent to a pscyh

doctor. She is really great, and willing to try anything, diet, meds etc.

We also found a great behaviourist thru reginal center ( I know shocking !!)

We still have many hurdels to meet, but we are at least getting some

support. My husband and I get very depressed over a lot of this stuff.

Joyce- which Kaiser do you go to in S.Cal? I have Kaiser and the neurologist

I saw only wanted to give drugs- never heard of the relationship between

autism and leaky gut syndrome. Kaiser doesn't usually have their own

pediatric neurologists; they contract with an outside hospital. The doctor

we saw was the head of Pediatric Neurology at Children's Hospital, a real

big shot and a total &%@?#$?. I would of as soon talked to him about diet as

told him I was a martian.
