After a long hiatus, Rachel and Christie are back with a discussion with Dr. Sarah Cheyette about the challenges of getting support for ADHD in children and adults. Listen in as Dr. Cheyette explains the how the history and stigma of the ADHD diagnosis affected the number of doctors trained to work with patients. She also outlines the options for families to get support starting with a primary physician and specifically, from coaches, therapists, developmental pediatricians, psychiatrists and like her pediatric neurologists. You will hear her explain that it goes back to having a good team and to never give up on your child.
