Autism expert Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh joins Shannon for a special
episode of Ask Dr. Doreen. Ask Dr. Doreen is a weekly live segment
where viewers can ask questions of one of Autism's leading experts.
In this episode Dr. Doreen answers the following questions:
00:18 My 27-year-old brother had Asperger's and psychosis. How can
we overlap these diagnoses to get him the best help and
treatment?
21:13 With the new DSM-V, is there no longer an Asperger's
diagnosis? What about when it is combined with other medical
conditions?
25:19 Is treatment for ADHD appropriate for kids with autism?
30:48 The regional center will only give me 10 hours of ABA. I just
got insurance, will CARD provide me with more hours?
42:20 Should I apply for Social Security for my 2-year-old with
ASD?
45:22 Why has no one done research on autism and puberty?
