Signs and Symptoms of an Autism Spectrum Disorder

Check out this blog to see the early warning signs of an autism spectrum disorder.

With 1 in 88 children being diagnosed with autism in our country, it is imperative that our medical professionals have proper training in identifying the early warning signs of this disorder.  Therefore, I have developed a checklist of signs and symptoms to look for when determining if a child between the ages of 12 and 36 months requires a formal developmental evaluation. For more information on this checklist, please visit: http://bcotb.com/signs-of-an-autism-spectrum-disorder/
