ADHD Pediatrician Lawrenceville, GA
About ADHD
Children with ADHD aren’t struggling due to willpower or behavior—they experience distinct, neurodevelopmental differences that impact areas of the brain responsible for self-regulation, working memory, organization, and impulse control. Research shows that in kids with ADHD, key brain regions often develop more slowly or are smaller in size, leading to imbalances in important neurotransmitters such as dopamine and norepinephrine.
These neurological differences manifest in three primary symptom categories— inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsivity—which can combine in various ways. This means some kids may struggle only with focus, while others face a mix of challenges. Regardless of the presentation, symptoms are significant enough to impact performance in school, at home, and with peers.

We evaluate each child’s profile—attention, memory, organization, and behaviors—and work with families to develop personalized strategies that support academic success, social skills, and emotional regulation.

ADHD Diagnosis
Our pediatricians follow a thorough, evidence-based process for
ADHD diagnosis. We begin by gathering detailed observations from parents, teachers, and the child, often using standardized behavior rating tools to assess symptoms across multiple settings (like home and school). A comprehensive history and physical examination are also conducted to rule out other possible causes of attention or behavior issues. Once a diagnosis is confirmed, your pediatrician will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your child’s needs, including behavioral strategies, therapy, and medication if appropriate. Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor progress and make adjustments as needed, ensuring long-term support for your child’s success and well-being.
ADHD Management
Once an ADHD diagnosis is confirmed, your pediatrician will craft a personalized treatment plan tailored to your child’s needs. This may include behavior therapy, educational strategies, medication, dietary guidance, or holistic support. Regular follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor outcomes, adjust interventions, and ensure your child receives the comprehensive care they need for
ADHD management.
