Our Melmed Center Care Pathway
The goal of Melmed Center is to provide family-centered care and support for you and your child. Melmed Center uses a team approach. Each child has a core team usually made up of a nurse practitioner, a developmental pediatrician, and you! Your input lets us know what we can do to meet your needs. You know your child the best!
Our care pathway provides:
Initial visits are scheduled with a developmental pediatrician, a nurse practitioner, or one of our educational psychologists. At this visit, a complete history, a physical examination and developmental testing is usually performed. Once your child's diagnostic profile is established, an intervention plan is designed.
