About Us

Development Disorders

Developmental disorders describe a group of conditions that begin early in life. Such disorders can affect a person in many areas including learning, communication and motor skills.

With the right treatment and management, a child can outgrow these conditions and symptoms. For others, their disorder can continue to affect their essential skills long into adult life.
