We met with him once while I was on the hunt for the right AT specialist. (He was recommended by a mom here on the boards who had great experience with him.) He was *really* good but it was a few hours of driving from out of state to meet him at the JCC. We were in the process of working out getting our district to pay for him to meet with us closer when I found the amazing gem DD has been working with. If you are in or near NYC I would definitely recommend meeting with him. You can meet with him free of charge at the JCC or schedule a private time with him. If NYC is not convenient for multiple meetings he may be able to refer you to someone closer to where you live. He seemed pretty well connected when I spoke with him.
