00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:15.000
is often worse than
the appointment itself.

Whether public or private,

00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:32.500
ask the provider how many

00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:42.500
and helps the clinician
complete the assessment efficiently.

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:47.500
Bring your child's favorite toy or snack.
