Just got home again — thinking of your family. I don’t live in St. Louis but my family might be moving there in a year or so, so I have been networking and looking into things. Anyway in case it helps, here are some #’s from the MO-FEAT directory for neurologists:

Dennis Altman, 314-251-5866
Garrett Burris, 314-275-7070
David Callahan, 314-275-7070
Glen Felton, 314-577-5338
Elizabeth Horton, 573-334-0067
John Mantovani, 314-251-5866
Shulamit Portnoy, 314-539-9543

There is also a long list of psychiatrists, most of whom seem to be reachable at 314-286-1740 or website http://www.wuphysicians.wustl.edu

Lynda,

I am the mother of a 22 y.o. son with fragile X syndrome, which overlaps with autism in many ways. I am originally from St. Louis and have emailed a couple of people for names of a lawyer as well as psychiatrist. Please contact me privately and I will give you any info I can gather. My heart goes out to you.

You should contact Anne Roux at MO-FEAT asap. They have a huge resource directory and I’m sure if she doesn’t know who to call she can give you more leads. I am looking at my MO-FEAT booklet right now and see two phone numbers listed, 314-645-6877 and 314-275-8880. Good luck; your family will be in my thoughts.

I knew a psychiatrist very good with anxiety disorders, with a working knowledge of the autistic spectrum…unfortunately he’s hours north of you & I don’t know if he does forensic work, & as I said HOURS north.

Good luck. I’m so sorry. This is terrible. Tell your son that we (me and my cats) hope that he gets proper help & justice, Lynda.

So scary…this kind of stuff frightens me to no end.
