Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that affects social interaction, communication, and behavior. Individuals with autism often have challenges in understanding and responding to social cues, forming and maintaining relationships, and expressing themselves verbally or non-verbally. They may exhibit repetitive behaviors, restricted interests, and a need for consistency in routines. Autism is a spectrum disorder, meaning that its characteristics can vary widely from person to person. While there is no cure for autism, Top Doctors provides access to diagnostic assessments, as well as support services that can greatly improve an individual's quality of life and their ability to navigate the world around them.
