Consultation for Learning Disabilities

There are a number of different neurological and genetic factors that can affect learning and academic success. In addition to challenges with processing, these factors can affect organization, time management, abstract reasoning, memory, and attention.

Years of Experience Behind Our Approach

Dr. Gary Feldman's 16 years as the Medical Director of the Stramski Children's Developmental Center have equipped him with a unique level of expertise working with children dealing with learning disabilities. We know that learning challenges can be very disruptive to a child's success, which is why we are dedicated to coming up with long-term solutions that can improve quality of life for everyone.

Clinical Evaluation

Prior to the child's first visit, parents and those involved in the child's daily life will be given a pre-evaluation that asks various questions about the child’s activity and behavior. This information gives Dr. Feldman a clearer understanding of the child's background and allow them to make the most accurate diagnosis. Throughout the child's first visit and the course of his or her treatment, we work closely with the family and conducts the most up-to-date standardized tests and assesments to ensure growth and development goals are achieved.

Assessment to Support Growth

Dr. Feldman utilizes special techniques that are play-based to help a child learn how to focus and create neurological stimulus. Our team will complete an assessment and refer each patient to appropriate centers. We provide medicine management, case management, and medical advice where appropriate and applicable. 

Continued Follow-Up Care

Routine appointments are made with the child as needed to encourage continued growth and development and to track progress. The number of visits a child needs per year are based upon the child’s diagnosis and condition.
