Additional information:
Clinic 4 Kidz provides intensive interdisciplinary feeding therapy for children birth to 12 years of age. We treat children with a variety of feeding problems such as tube dependence, food refusal by texture and type, bottle dependence, ritualistic eating patterns etc. Diagnoses include (but are not limited to) failure to thrive, developmental disabilities (e.g., autism, down syndrome etc.), prematurity, gastroesophageal reflux, and other gastrointestinal problems. Treatment is provided in the child’s natural environment (e.g., home, school, restaurants etc.). We are committed to providing individualized treatments to our patients using an interdisciplinary team approach. Our team develops an individualized treatment plan and once the child is successful with our therapists then all caregivers are trained to implement the treatment plan as well. The primary goal of our treatment program is to establish appropriate skills that can be maintained in the absence of our therapists. Therefore, caregiver training is an ongoing process in the program. The end goal of our program is that the child is an age-typical or developmentally typical eater.
