Under the guidance and supervision of Dr. Jennifer Cope, pediatric neurologist, we provide high-quality autism assessments of children up to age twenty-one. A quality assessment with medical oversight is often the first step in accessing insurance-provided therapy and school services.
Medical Services
Evidence-Based Autism Evaluations
Utilizing evidence-based tools, including the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS-2) and the Childhood Autism Scale (CARS), our clinical team conducts timely, individualized evaluations through structured activities, play-based interactions, developmental history, and caregiver input.
The ADOS Exam
Our staff works one-on-one with the children using the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) test. They will play games with the child, gather background information from the parent, and follow scientific protocols to see if the patient meets the criteria for autism.
Follow-up Care
We provide follow-up care for patients diagnosed with autism to monitor developmental progress, assess response to interventions, manage medications when indicated, and address new concerns that may arise.
EEGs
We offer EEG services in a sensory-friendly environment, including overnight ambulatory EEGs with in-office setup and home monitoring, ensuring children receive needed diagnostic care in a supportive setting.
Payment & Insurances
Medical services are covered by NJ Medicaid, most major commercial insurance plans, and private pay options. Our staff is available to assist families in verifying insurance benefits and coverage.
