My daughter (10) has a diagnosis of ADHD and I feel that we are missing something. Shes not autistic bh, but I need a thorough evaluation to re-asess her problems and make a therapy structure. I need someone partially reasonable. I am ready to pay out of pocket but cant afford a crazy amount. If anyone has experience please speak up. Her issues are really getting out of control. WE NEED INFO ASAP.

Thanks.

Forgot to say that I would prefer a female doc. She gets shy with men.

Op here,

Thanks, I appreciate your responses. Aside her ADHD she has weak social skills. Not shy at all and has no problems making friends. But she talks like a chatter box, tells stories on EXTREME details and emotions and bores her friends by talking so detailed. can interrupt 2girls conversing privately and has a problen picking up social cues. Just a small picture.

Sorry I don't have more helpful info to share, but I do want to assure you that the social examples you gave are pretty common in people with ADHD. Sorry that doesn't give you direction to move forward, but perhaps some reassurance that you are not alone in this!

A friend told me she had a great experience with a certain doctor, on the pricey side but she said he was amazing. If you're interested please PM me.

I know you want a woman, but for anyone else who is looking at this thread:

I \went to Dr. Jeffrey Newcorn at Mount Sinai when I was 11. He was really kind and made me feel very comfortable. He has always been very respectful of frum people.

He's outstanding, a heart of gold, and is also a researcher and top in the field.

Biggest downside is the cost. But it's worth it if you are okay with a male and want someone who will listen to you and make an effort to understand, has a good "bedside manner" and is ALSO a top researcher and up to the latest developments.

I have male and female relatives with AD(h)d who went to him and everyone is happy.
