It was nice to speak to you on the phone Jean.

Anyone who has a child with autism can be reassured that it is not a mental disorder but a biological disorder that can receive medical treatrment with good chances of improvement / recovery. There is a gorwing body of reserch from the USA to support this finding.

There is an Autism Conference here in HK this August - (www.conference.autismpnhk.org) with top researchers from around the world! Information on biomedical approach and therapy.

Theray (ABA) is available in HK by Autsim Recovery Network (a parents, non-profit making organisation) at www.autismrec.net The therapists are very dedicated.

Another useful HK website with information on the biomedical approach is autism parent network foundation (www.autismpnhk.net)

Dr Trodd, Shui-On Centre, is very experienced in helping autistic children with the biomedical approach, my son has made huge improvements in just a few months.
