What doctors are needed for diagnosis of asperger's?
A neurologist and a psychiatrist are the best specialists to diagnose Asperger's. If a pediatrician suspects it, s/he should refer you to a neurologist who specializes in neurodevelopmental disorders, or to a psychiatrist who specializes in neurobehavioral disorders. The best scenario is when an Aspie has both a neurologist and a psychiatrist as part of his medical team, coordinated by a primary care physician / pediatrician. In adulthood, an Aspie will want the same type of doctors but move on from the pediatric level to the physicians who treat adults with developmental disabilities.
