We are moving to HCMC and we have a 4 year old son on the autism spectrum. He is on the high functioning side (PDD NOS) and would like to be introducted to all the possible options of services available in Saigon (Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, ABA Therapy). Can someone point us in the right direction?

Thanks

GOOD NEWS for you.

If you join both An Phu Neighbour and Phu My Hung Neighbour forums in Google Groups there is a woman who is trained in treating autistic patients.

There are also posts right here in this forum. Use the search feature.

I am mobile tonight and I can't access my corporate data base from my Android.

If you don't find anything, send me a PM.

That's the one (and only).

The VN government is reporting a significant increase in VN children with autism. Whether it is better detection or a real increase is not known.
