Developmental Pediatrics is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and management of children with developmental delays and disabilities. This area of pediatrics addresses a range of issues, including autism spectrum disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and learning disabilities, ensuring that children receive the appropriate support and interventions.
Professionals in Developmental Pediatrics work closely with families to create individualized care plans that promote optimal growth and development. They collaborate with other specialists, such as speech therapists and occupational therapists, to provide comprehensive care tailored to each child's unique needs.
