Our Services
Autism assessment
Do you notice signs of autism in your child? Early diagnosis and intervention is the key to a favourable outcome.
Seizures & Epilepsy
Seizures are frightening events for parents to witness. We evaluate febrile seizures and epilepsy to determine the best treatment option for the child.
Pediatric Headache
Frequent or severe headaches in children need to be evaluated. Recognizing the different causes of headache is the starting point in treating headaches.
Developmental Delay
Is your child meeting developmental milestones? Early assessment and referral for intervention and support services remains the best treatment plan.
Tics & Tourette Syndrome
Tics are common in childhood and often cause great distress and anxiety for the child and family. We understand the challenge and are ready to help.
ADHD
School performance is often affected by ADHD. A wide range of treatment options are available.
