Meyer Center for Developmental Pediatrics Clinic

Nothing seems as simple as a child at play. Yet for many children who are born with problems that may affect their physical or mental development, such activity is neither simple nor carefree. Conditions including prematurity, birth defects, infections, accidents or prenatal exposure to drugs or alcohol can cause abnormalities that affect a child’s ability to walk, talk or learn. Some have visual or hearing impairments. Others have central nervous system defects, while many have multiple handicaps resulting from birth defects, accidents and illness.

Since it’s founding in 1960, the Leopold L. Meyer Center for Developmental Pediatrics has helped children with special needs. We diagnose and develop management plans for children who have complex problems such as learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, mental retardation, autistic spectrum disorders and disorders of language, behavior and attention.

Our approach is interdisciplinary and family-centered. This means that a team of professionals evaluates each child and works with the family on assessments, team meetings and conferences to develop an individualized treatment program.
