Consultations for neurodevelopmental disorders

What we offer (for physicians)

Neuropédiatrie Genève specializes in screening for neurodevelopmental disorders in children, following the DSM-V and CIM-11 diagnostic criteria. The screening is conducted by a pediatric neurologist, allowing us to detect not only common neurodevelopmental disorders but also those associated with underlying neurological conditions.
 

We specifically screen for the following conditions according to DSM-V criteria:

  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
  • Intellectual disability (ID)
  • Specific learning disorders (formerly dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia)
  • Developmental language disorder (DLD) (formerly dysphasia), dysarthria, aphasia
  • Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) (formerly dyspraxia)

How it works?

  1. The process starts with screening questionnaires and the collection of prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal history, as well as details about the child’s development and general health
  2. Following this, screening tests are conducted, and if necessary, additional assessments are arranged within our center or through our network of specialized professionals
  3. After this initial assessment, a neurological consultation is performed. The child undergoes a complete neurological examination‍ and a medical history is taken.
  4. Once the screening is completed, we provide a personalized care plan, which may include:
    – Medical treatment if required.
    – Referral to a network specialist (psychologist, speech therapist, physiotherapist geneticists, etc.).
    – Regular follow-ups to adjust treatment and support the child’s development.

 

We are committed to delivering high-quality, personalized care in a calm and supportive environment for both children and their families.
