Guest guest Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Hi, I am trying to help my sister in law who has a son who is 8 yrs. He has speech related issues, may be on the autism spectrum, has emotional issues etc. My nephew has a lot of the same similiar issues as our children and my son. He is also having major school related issues. I was telling her she should bring him to Developmental Pediatrician and a Developmental Psychologist to evaluate him further. She asked me where to find them . My problem is this I live in another state way across the U.S. from her. Could someone on the list serve help me find a Developmental Pediatrician and a Developmental Psycholgist and possibly some recommendations on other places in the Tacoma, Washington area? Also is there anyone who lives close to Tacoma, Washington? She would be interested in connecting with someone who is in her area who might be able to help her further. If anyone can help me with this information. I would highly appreciate it. By the way we think there is a genetic link in our family so far there are 5 of the grandkids with very similiar issues and 3 with severe speech disorders. You may email me off list if u would like. Thank you, Jeanne and NH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 I have not worked with him personally, but have a list from McCarthy's doctor of pediatricians that might be able to help you. The closest on the list is in Oregon. I realize this may not be close enough, but if you call his office they might be able to provide you with a name of a good doctor in Seattle. Good Luck.
