The Annual Community Autism Expo at the Clark Family Branch of the St. Louis County Public Library was a success! Dr. Lane and our clinic director Michelle Tankersley represented STLCCH, and met a lot of incredible families and community partners!

2. Diagnose and recommend the whole range of neurodevelopmental or neurocognitive conditions in children - not just autism or ADHD
3. See your child at a cost that is comparable to what families might pay toward their deductible if they used their commercial health insurance.

During the bitter campaign season of the 2024 pre...
