Child Development and Behavior

by Brian Alverson, MD

Children are in a constant state of rapid development in multiple domains simultaneously, and it is only natural that issues will arise from time to time (e.g., ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, sleep problems, breath-holding spells, and toilet training). Such issues are certainly not insurmountable. Early diagnosis can lead to significantly improved quality of life in these patients, and early intervention can provide significant results.
