Overview

Autism Diagnosis & Assessment in Frisco

A solo developmental and behavioral pediatrics practice in Frisco, TX, Jacob's Ladder is run by Dr. Julie Jacob, M.D., FAAP — doubly board-certified in general pediatrics and developmental-behavioral pediatrics. Families come here for thorough evaluations of autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, learning and language delays, behavioral challenges, and high-risk infant concerns. After diagnosis, Dr. Jacob builds a coordinated plan that loops in schools, therapists, psychologists, and ABA providers so each child gets matched support rather than a one-size approach.

Best for

North Texas families who need a specialist physician to evaluate and formally diagnose developmental or behavioral concerns — particularly autism, ADHD, or developmental delays — in children from birth through age 12.

Their approach

Evaluations combine standardized developmental testing, parent and teacher surveys, a full medical exam, and any lab or imaging studies Dr. Jacob deems warranted, culminating in a written diagnosis and individualized treatment plan. Rather than delivering a single therapy in-house, Dr. Jacob coordinates with the broader community of specialists so children get exactly the mix of supports their profile calls for.

What to expect

The practice does not bill insurance directly but furnishes a detailed superbill parents can submit to their carrier for potential out-of-network reimbursement; credit card, check, and cash are accepted. Office hours are Tuesday through Thursday, 9am–5pm; call (469) 476-1444 or use the website contact form to request an appointment, and new patient forms are available to download in advance.
