If you have concerns about your child’s attention span, or if your child is exhibiting delays in other areas of development, contact your child’s pediatrician or family doctor. If further evaluation is indicated, the doctor may refer your family to an appropriate specialist such as a child psychiatrist or psychologist, a developmental/behavioral pediatrician, or a behavioral neurologist. If you are a California resident and your child is under the age of three, you may also be referred to the local Regional Center for evaluation and services; or to your local school district, if your child is over three years of age.

You are an expert on your child. Trust your instincts and seek further evaluation if you have any concerns regarding your child’s development.
