Special Needs

Children and adults with special needs are warmly welcomed to our practice. We see a wide range of special needs patients including autism, cerebral palsy, mentally and physically challenged patients. Dr. Baldy has personally met and observed the medical specialists who work with the autistic children, so that she may understand their needs more fully.

While we care for special needs patients in our office, we also acknowledge that some of our patients may need to go to the operating room so that we can complete their care comfortably in a hospital setting. In the past, patients needing specialized care were sent to Birmingham. However, Dr. Baldy and her staff have established a dental suite at Children’s and Women’s Hospital in Mobile, so that children and adults could be seen locally. Rest assured, should this need arise, we are fully capable of treating your child in either our office or in the hospital suite.
