ADHD, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is a neurodevelopmental condition that can make it difficult for children to focus, control impulses, and sit still. Navigating ADHD can be a journey for both children and parents as it often requires a team approach to manage the symptoms and find effective treatment options.
ADHD management can involve working closely with our pediatrician Dr. Corazon Panes Sanchez at Sanchez Pediatrics, a therapist, and possibly a school counselor to develop strategies to help your child succeed academically and socially. Remember, every child is unique, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach when managing ADHD, so be patient and stay positive as you navigate this journey together.
Getting Help for Your Child With ADHD
If you're a parent who suspects that your child might have ADHD, don't worry - help is available. The first step is to schedule an appointment with our pediatrician specializing in ADHD. During the consultation, the pediatrician will ask questions about your child's behavior, symptoms, and medical history. They may also observe your child and administer tests to confirm the diagnosis.
Once our pediatrician determines a diagnosis, they can recommend treatment options such as medication, behavioral therapy, or a combination. Remember, seeking help from a pediatrician is the best way to ensure your child receives the care and support they deserve.
