Guest guest Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 > Kim, > I know you are doing the best you can for your son, but I am also wondering, how many autistic kids the Mayo Clinic works with and if they approach autism as a biomedical condition or psychological? > If they do approach autism as a medical condition, what kind of things to they do? Or have they elaborated on that for you? You could ask this question on the Autism Mercury list. There is a parent there who has an older child who not too long ago posted about the Mayo Clinic and the treatments the child received there. The post was perhaps a month to two months ago. From what I recall the child is receiving bio-med treatment now and no longer going to the Mayo Clinic. Another thing I wanted to mention after reading of the appointment with a genetic doctor in March is that Dr. Lonsdale (TTFD creator) was the head of the bio-chemical genetics dept of Cleveland Clinic so also has this type of background. Where-ever you look, I hope you find the help for your child and wish you the best. Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
