 At
the Dunbar ADHD Clinic our primary goal is to offer a
one-stop program to address ADHD issues relating to the
home, the school, and within the child. We will provide to
parents and children practical/effective recommendations
that will be family friendly and useful at school.
Information will be collected from the parents, the child
(where appropriate), the school, and other professionals
within the community. This will allow us to provide both
the most appropriate treatment and the educational steps
necessary for the child’s success.
We have two USC School of
Medicine faculty who operate and staff the clinic.
