Been trying to book an appointment for a neurologist and the closest date they gave me was November. Another told me March. Does it have to be exclusively through a pediatrician neurologist or any other MDs or psychologists that can make the diagnosis?

This is for my 5 soon to be 6 kid. Has trouble focusing at school and we've been suspecting adhd for a while.

Psychiatrists are the best to diagnose your son. They differ from psychologists in the sense that that they are medical doctors and they prescribe you with medicine or other forms of treatment ost psychologists can't) They also understand conditions from a biological and neuro chemical perspective.

Psychologists are better for psychotherapy. They can help with cognitive and behavioral stuff.

The psychiatrists will ask a series of questions to you and your son related to ADHD and it will determine a diagnosis and treatment after.
