Personal Statement

Unlike the big hospitals, I give my clients personal attention. That means everything from writing diagnostic reports that are specific and helpful and not canned, to answering the phone or returning calls promptly, to going to the school with parents to advocate for the child, to continuing to give parents advice and support long after the formal evaluation is finished. I have built a loyal clientele by paying attention to details. I do my best to work cooperatively with the child's school, but I put the child's needs first.
