    I need to see a neuropsych with my son. We are driving each other bananas. He is cyber schooling right now but headed back to public school next year and I need ideas for accommodations but I don't know what. The only neuropsych I want to see in Pittsburgh isn't taking patients. So I figure if I have to drive, it might as well be to the experts.

    So has anyone been there for an eval and what did you think? DS has Aspergers. He has had a continuous performance test, full OT evaluation and VT workup. NADA! He is average or way above average in everything except lagging in fine motor skills (but the OT whom I trust wasn't concerned).

    I am still concerned he has dysgraphia or a working memory problem or some kind of focus problem that doesn't turn up on the continuous performance. He is making me crazy! His output is way too slow and he comes across as lazy. I need someone used to dealing with 2e to evaluate these items.

    Thanks!

    How expensive?
    What were the qualifications of the person conducting the testing? Was it a neuropsych?
