Autism spectrum disorder care at Mayo Clinic

Your Mayo Clinic care team

Mayo Clinic's teamwork ensures quality and patient-centered care for your child and family. Your Mayo Clinic care team may include a general pediatrician, a developmental-behavioral pediatrician, a neuropsychologist, a behavior analyst, nurses, a social worker, an audiologist and others as needed. Which experts are involved in evaluation and treatment will depend on your child's specific needs.

Advanced diagnosis and treatment

The Mayo Clinic Division of Developmental Behavioral Pediatrics is part of Mayo Clinic Children's. A multispecialty team evaluates, diagnoses and treats children and teenagers who have complex developmental or behavioral conditions, including autism spectrum disorder. Care is given using a family-centered approach.

After evaluation and testing, the team will recommend a treatment plan specific to your child's needs. Then the team will meet with you and your child to talk about the plan. Your plan could include school services, therapy, recommendations for medicine management or follow-up with other healthcare professionals.
