Post Neurologist, Psychiatrist or Psychologist for Evaluation

I would like to get my son re-evaluated. He is 8 years old now. What would you recommend where I should make an appointment: Neurologist, Psychiatrist or Psychologist?

Child psychiatrist. What would be even better is if you can get someone who is a child psychiatrist and a neurologist. Please remember to be careful though. Lots of different disorders/problems can be misdiagnosed as ADD/ADHD. Get someone who listens to YOUR CHILD. That is one way to know they are good. Most docs dont even talk for more than a few minutes with the child before making a "diagnosis" If you find somebody who actually talks in depth with your child then you will get a more accurate diagnosis.
