A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

It is time for my daughter to move on from the care of her Neurodevelopmental Pediatrician and we can't seemed to find anyone to move on to. Anyone have a recommendation for a doctor with some experience caring for adults with ASD in the Northeast PA area? Could even travel to Southern NY if we found a good doctor.

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm currently living in Washington DC and my son is 13 attends K-12 home school program. I'm willing move and looking hard to find a school in Maryland and a summer program for him. I'm just so afraid to send him to a regular public school. Hes very shy loves drawing, but has no friends. I feel awful about that because he has told me he feels alone.

Anyone Know Of A Dr. Specializing In Treatment For Adults With ASD In Northeast PA?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My daughter is 18 quickly approaching 19. We are still seeing her pediatric neurodevelopmentalist and he has said there is no rush for her to move on but I do think we need to start looking. I have not heard of anyone in my area who specializes in adults with ASD. Do professionals in this area even exist?

We are having the same problem with our son who is 21. His pediatrician will see him till he is 22, which is soon approaching. We cannot find a GP who specializes in adults with autism.

DFW Relocation And Schools
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Our family is planning to relocate to Fort Worth, Texas from Cleveland, Ohio. We are seeking advice on schools for our son. He will turn 5 in May and is a high functioning autistic boy diagnosed as twice exceptional (2e). So, we are seeking a place that will challenge the academic side while providing access to services to assist with social engagement, speech articulation, and fine motor development. We would greatly appreciate suggestions!

Thanks,
Charles
