Overview

Autism Diagnosis & Assessment in Frisco

Frisco families looking for a board-certified developmental and behavioral pediatrician will find a sole-practitioner practice at Jacob's Ladder Developmental Pediatrics, led by Dr. Julie Jacob, MD, FAAP. Children from birth through age 12 are evaluated for autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, learning disabilities, developmental delays, and high-risk infant concerns, with established patients followed through age 18. After a thorough assessment, Dr. Jacob builds an individualized treatment plan and coordinates with schools, therapists, and outside ABA providers to put it into action.

Best for

Families in Frisco and the surrounding North Texas area who need a rigorous developmental or behavioral evaluation from a solo board-certified specialist — especially for children under 12 with suspected autism, ADHD, or developmental delays.

Their approach

Each appointment combines a detailed medical and developmental history, standardized testing tools, parent and teacher questionnaires, and a full physical exam before any diagnosis is made. Dr. Jacob then acts as a coordinator and advocate, working alongside schools, psychologists, speech-language pathologists, occupational and physical therapists, and ABA providers to shape a program tailored to the child.

What to expect

The practice does not participate with any insurance network; appointments are self-pay (credit card, check, or cash) and a Superbill is issued so families can file for out-of-network reimbursement on their own. The office sees patients Tuesday through Thursday, 9am–5pm; call (469) 476-1444 or message through the website to schedule, and download new-patient forms in advance.
