If Dr. Gaspar has diagnosed your child through an early intervention facility, don't count on the follow-up HE REQUESTS at his office at Ackerman Center. He informed me at the diagnosis apt that he would want a follow-up before my child's 3rd birthday at his office, not through the early intervention office again. I've been trying for weeks to get on a waiting list with Ackerman, and they are saying they won't see my child without a referral from a pediatrician. Gaspar is the referral since he's the one who wants the follow-up!!!!! The pediatrician has no idea of the diagnosis date, let alone Gaspar wanting a follow-up, so Ackerman refuses to put us on the waiting list because my pediatrician has no idea what they're talking about. Ackerman staff won't even entertain the idea of talking to Gaspar or the early intervention clinic to see that this is all a follow-up apt requested by him. Communication between him, his office, and the places he does diagnosis at is a joke!!!!! And EVERYONE I've talked to at Ackerman whether it be by phone or their email portals are jokes, because they won't listen and just keep repeating themselves like robots. If you want resources to help your child, I wouldn't waste your time with Ackerman. Also, they have referrals from the early intervention office, one from the day of diagnosis in October and one that was resent yesterday because I contacted the early intervention office to voice my frustrations and they sent it AGAIN to the Ackerman office. But surprise surprise, like all the other reviews, when I spoke to the rude repetitive robot on the phone today, she couldn't find anything and just kept going on about a pediatrician referral.
