ADHD/Anxiety/Depression/School Readiness/Learning Differences
We offer the ability to diagnosis ADHD/ADD. We work with the school to provide the best therapy. We require close follow up after the initial diagnosis and subsequent followup with parent, child and School. There are times that ADHD is not the diagnosis and learning differences or lack of school readiness and or anxiety/depression is the issue. Northport Pediatrics is prepared to help you meet your needs so that your child can be successful in school and their extracurricular activities.
Parents often are not sure if they need to pursue an evaluation for anxiety or depression for their Child. We encourage you to come in alone without your child at first to speak to us about your concerns and we can steer you in the right direction. An evaluation for depression and Anxiety is made via an initial office visit along with the parents consultation.We are able to make the appropriate referrals and provide the therapy needed.
We require very close follow up and make it clear to both Parent and Child that self healing is the goal and not ongoing therapy.
