Meet our pediatric developmental team
Once your child's delay is diagnosed, you and your therapist will meet to develop the appropriate treatment plan. At that time, very specific plans and therapies are then provided by us or by referral to an appropriate resource. Our bilingual, bicultural staff can also care for the needs of non-English-speaking families.
