Child Development

*Effective March 31, 2025*

Sunsetting Child Development Services 
After 36 years of practicing medicine and 22 years at Raleigh Neurology Associates, Dr. Milowic has made the difficult decision to retire at the end of March 2025.  Although Raleigh Neurology has been looking for another Developmental Behavioral Pediatrician for over four years, we have not been able to fill this role.  Unfortunately, this means that Raleigh Neurology will be sunsetting developmental services after Dr. Milowic’s retirement at the end of March 2025.
 

Transitioning Care Outside of Raleigh Neurology

For patients and parents/guardians, we recommend that you consult with your primary care physician on the best course for your child for medication management.  This may be that your primary doctor takes over prescribing medications, or they may make a referral to psychiatrist or other behavioral services.   You can also contact the NC Medical Board or the NC Medical Society for a recommendation. You may also choose to contact your healthcare insurance company to assist with locating in-network providers.    

To obtain a copy of your medical records, you may request this in one of three ways including:

1.      Through the patient portal accessible at www.raleighneurology.com, or

2.   By downloading the “records release form” found under the “contact us – request my records” section on our website.

My Child…

child-development-patient-story-option1Our young son’s teacher reached out to let us know she had some concerns about his progression and attention in school. After a meeting with the school, they directed us to speak with our pediatrician. The pediatrician met with us and after hearing our concerns, recommended we see a Developmental Pediatrician at Raleigh Neurology. The referral was submitted and RNA contacted us regarding the information they needed to get our son scheduled. It takes a bit of time to get in but it is well worth it.

Once our son was seen, his doctor was able to determine that he did have ADHD. We were able to test out a medication and found it to be immediately effective. My son went from being anxious and disconnected to being able to engage, focus and be an active participant in his class and his life.
