We came to you because of problems Aaron had been having in school with his reading and attentiveness.  We had been through many frustrating testing procedures with little or no results.  I happened to see an article in the Union-Tribune about your vision therapy program.  In vision therapy, Aaron became more confident in his ability […]

When I first brought Rodell to see you, he was considered ADD.  He had trouble doing his schoolwork, so it would come home and we would “fight” to get it done in 2 3 hours.  Since he’s been coming here, the only thing he has brought home is spelling.  Everything else is being completed at […]
