General Information

Neurodevelopmental Pediatrics is a pediatric specialty that focuses on monitoring the psychokinetic development and learning abilities of children, as well as diagnosing and monitoring behavioral problems.

While developmental monitoring forms an integral part of pediatric care, in some cases, it requires specialized assessment at a dedicated Developmental Medicine Department if a problem has been detected by the family pediatricians, the parents or the teachers.

These cases include:

  • Delays in acquiring skills at various developmental stages
  • Behavioral and socialization problems
  • School readiness
  • Learning difficulties
  • Children with special skills

Apart from taking down a child’s medical history and performing a physical exam, a fundamental part of the developmental assessment is to communicate with and gather information from other professionals involved in the child’s care, such as teachers and physicians, after acquiring the parents’ consent.
