Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), often referred to simply as autism, includes a range of conditions that cause challenges with social skills, speech, and nonverbal communication.
Each patient with an autism disorder has a unique set of strengths and challenges that can interfere with their ability to learn, think, solve problems, and communicate with others. Additionally, patients with autism need varying levels of support to thrive.
Signs of autism usually emerge around the age of 2 or 3, and the average age of diagnosis is around 4 years old. If your child is exhibiting signs of autism, schedule a diagnostic assessment with a developmental pediatrician or child psychologist. Once you have a verified diagnosis, come to our facility for a treatment consultation. Early diagnosis and treatment contribute to positive outcomes later in life.
