| Evaluating ADHD is a painstaking, fact-gathering process. One brief visit to the family does not a diagnosis make. To get a thorough evaluation, parents can turn to a wide variety of health professionals-from pediatricians to child psychologists to neurologists-as long as they are knowledgeable about the condition. A complete assessment includes five major steps. |
|
| Step #1: Background information. |
| Step #2: Physical exam. |
| Step #3: Observation of behavior. |
| Step #4: Parent interview. |
| Step #5: Parent and teacher rating forms. |
