About Texas Children's Pediatrics - Lakewood
Pediatricians are much more than doctors – they are partners in your child’s health. At Texas Children's Pediatrics, we understand the importance of feeling completely comfortable with your child’s primary care physician. Your child’s health is our priority, and each of our more than 200 board-certified, expert pediatricians has extensive training in children’s health care.
Please note that without member information we cannot guarantee that your specific plan covers these services. We recommend asking the care provider before beginning services.
It’s ok for shots and the hearing, height and weight measurements. I think if the child has a serious medical issue, then it’s not so great. The staff are so swamped so that they can’t recall much about my child nor do they seem overly concerned about any specific issue bc there’s already too many patients for them to manage. I told them about a serious issue my son was experiencing and on the handout it advised to return in 12 months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your pediatrician might be able to administer screenings, but most general doctors are not trained to formally diagnose autism. They might refer you to a qualified diagnostic clinician which include:
Developmental Pediatricians
Child Psychologists
Child Psychiatrists
Pediatric Neurologists
Pediatric Neuropsychologists
Your experience might look different depending on the type of clinician you choose. Many families prefer working with developmental pediatricians. Others might work with a psychiatrist or another specialist to get a different perspective.
A formal ASD diagnosis, or a medical diagnosis, helps you get the support your family needs, especially within the context of accessing medically necessary therapies and services.
Insurance Coverage for Therapies: Medically necessary therapies for ASD are often covered by insurance including, but not limited to, speech therapy, ABA therapy, and occupational therapy.
Financial Support: A diagnosis is required when applying for social security or disability benefits.
Plan for Care: A diagnosis helps identify your child’s support needs. For example, your child might need to develop social communication and self-regulation skills.
Future Research: The more data we gather through evaluations, the more we can improve services for autistic children and adults.
