Who we support
Developmental paediatricians support children and youth (ages 0-18) who have:

- Intellectual and/or developmental disabilities
- Autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
- Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD)
- Complex physical or mental health issues

What to expect
Inquire
Once you inquire, we’ll be in touch to start the registration process and connect you with a specialized paediatrician.
Begin consultation appointments
When a match has been made, you’ll begin to schedule consultation appointments with your specialist. They will help make sure each aspect of your child’s care is aligned.
Your developmental paediatrician can then support you by:
- Providing ongoing care
- Providing developmental assessments
- Helping you get a diagnosis
- Reviewing referrals
- Assessing developmental and behavioural concerns
- Helping you access other medical services your child needs
- Providing care recommendations for your family or other physicians

Connect with the right developmental specialist
Rather than looking for a specialist doctor on your own, we can guide you through the whole process. We partner with hospitals and specialty clinics to help you work with a developmental paediatrician who has deep knowledge in your child’s disability.
This allows you to receive tailored medical guidance to support:
- Diagnosis
- Care planning
- Access to specialty services
PLEASE NOTE: Our Developmental Paediatrics service is for families who have received a referral letter from their primary care provider.
Our Developmental Paediatrics service is part of the Transitional Aged Youth with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities clinic collaboration with St. Michael’s Hospital, FASD Diagnostic Services, and the Adaptive Behavioural Intellectual Developmental Disability Integrated Tertiary Care Youth & Children (ABILITY) program at the Hospital for Sick Children.
