The Division of Developmental & Behavioral Pediatrics cares for children from birth to 22 years of age. Our team of specialists focuses on diagnosis, treatment, and support for children with developmental delays and behavior challenges. We work together with your child’s other doctors, therapists, teachers, coaches, childcare, and family members to develop the best plan to meet their medical needs.
