Luisa Fernanda Hernandez Medellin

She has been providing neuropsychological and behavioral health services to children, adolescents, and their families in South Florida since 2018. Dr. Hernandez Medellin specializes in the identification and assessment of neurodevelopmental conditions, such as Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) in children and adults, developmental and learning disorders, attention-deficit and disruptive behavior disorders, comorbid anxiety, and mood disorders. She also works with children and young adults with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)/concussions, spinal cord injury, epilepsy, brain tumors, arteriovenous malformation bleeds/strokes, demyelinating diseases, cancer, general medical conditions, and genetic disorders affecting the nervous system. Dr. Hernandez Medellin is a native Spanish-speaker and is well-versed in liaising with private schools and public school systems, tutors, and executive function coaches, collaborating and making recommendations about accommodations and services to facilitate academic success. She is authorized under PsyPACT to conduct neuropsychological evaluations for children and students who are unable to easily come to their offices, which can be especially helpful when students are away from their parents and caregivers – even out of state – at a boarding school, college, therapeutic residential program, or just located too far away.
