Developmental & Behavioral Pediatrics

Approach

Our team believes in family-centered care, recognizing that the parents or guardians have a wealth of knowledge about their child’s development and are seen as an integral part of the care team. Every child is unique, and we strive to recognize the specific needs of your child and family.

Initial appointments may be with one of the following providers or team of providers:

• Developmental pediatrician
• Nurse practitioner/physician associate
• Psychologist
• Speech, occupational, and/or physical therapist *

Your child’s care team will provide the following:

*Please note we do not provide ongoing therapy services such as ABA therapy, speech therapy or occupational therapy, but we can provide you with referrals for these services.

Make an Appointment

Please call 1.800.543.7362 (1.800.KIDS DOC) to initiate all referrals into the Division of Developmental & Behavioral Pediatrics. Prior to your appointment, we also encourage you to sign up for MyChart.

There may be a significant waiting period between when you are referred and when your initial appointment occurs. The current wait time for an initial appointment is currently around 30 months.

It is important to know that your child may be eligible for help now, even before your initial visit with our team. To help identify your child’s needs and getting services to help your child progress, visit our Resources & Family Support page to see what you can do while waiting for your first visit.
