After diagnosing patients with ASD, he has sought to find alternative approaches to helping treat these children.
Most of the pediatric allopathic community has been trained to approach autism as a behavioral disorder without any thought of medical intervention.
Thus far, only ABA, Speech, Physical and Occupational Therapies have been the mainstay of treatment.
Biomedical treatment of autism and ASD is based on the idea that autism is actually a complex neurodevelopmental disorder with genetic, epigenetic, metabolic and autoimmune origins.
By taking thorough medical and family histories, complete physical examination and neurological examination, evaluating blood and urine laboratory tests, the etiology of the individual's disorder can be determined in most cases.
