For ADD and ADHD, Kids Deserve the Best Care

If you’ve ever wondered if your child might have attention deficit disorder (ADD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), you’re not alone. Kids are naturally full of energy, and it can be challenging to get them to listen and focus — especially while attending school virtually.

Common signs and symptoms of ADD and ADHD to keep an eye out for include:

  • Daydreaming often
  • Difficulty following multi-step instructions
  • Easily distracted by external stimuli
  • Hyperactivity
  • Inability to focus for long periods of time
  • Poor impulse control
  • Poor school performance
  • Poor sleep habits 
  • Resistant to activities that require sustained mental effort
  • Unable to sit still, or constantly fidgeting

Our expert pediatricians are here to help and specialize in diagnosing and treating children with ADD and ADHD. Make your appointment today.
