Dr. Narinder Dhaliwal listened carefully during our thorough consultation. Her concern and care to see a positive outcome for our son was so personalized. She followed up with a large list of referrals and suggestions for therapies, tutoring, and social skill building that got us on the right track for fall. We picked and chose between a handful of suggestions that worked with our schedule and home location. Fast forward a few months after a summer one-on-one tutoring and a new school setting, we are seeing so many positive changes and a much happier and confident child.

We are so grateful for the genuine care and professional insight that Dr. Dhaliwal was able to provide us in our time of need. As parents, we had a hunch that things seemed a little different with our son. Dr. Dhaliwal listened intently and was able to quickly identify ways in which we could immediately and effectively support our child. She provided us with countless avenues of support. And gave us a great range of options to fit our families’ needs. As a professional, Dr. Dhaliwal is incredibly well-versed and knowledgeable. But her role as a dedicated mother of three adds a layer of intuitiveness and compassion that cannot be learned in a book. She’s the real deal! With the sound advice and solid guidance, we have embarked on our journey with our son feeling well-equipped and supported. Many many thanks!
