MEYER CENTER FOR DEVELOPMENTAL
PEDIATRICS
Established in 1994 as a
cooperative effort between the Meyer Center for Developmental Pediatrics and
the Texas Children's Newborn Center,
the Desmond Clinic
provides long-term follow-up and neurodevelopmental
assessments for pre-term babies and helps to identify
infants who may have special needs.
Testing for behavioral
problems such as attention deficit disorder (ADD) is
provided, as well as support for parents of premature
infants as the child progresses through the educational systems.
Patients
are seen at regular intervals, typically every four to six
months, for the first three years of life. Referrals will be
made to community resources to fit the needs of the child
and family.
