Question re Pediatricians and Autism

[Guest guest]

Since my eleven year-old son was diagnosed at eighteen months we have seen Dr. son, a developmental pediatrician, in Smyrna. Since my insurance plan did not cover autism we always paid her out of pocket, eve though she is very expensive. We always seemed to manage it though we gave up things in order to do it. With the hard times it has really gotten more difficult to afford her, though.

Does anyone know of any pediatricians in the Atlanta area with autism knowledge that might take Medicaid or at least have reasonable fees that would be more affordable? Dr. son currently sees my son once a quarter and maintains meds like clonidine and lamictal for his behaviors. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
