The Specialized Primary Care Experience Each Child Deserves
Primary and specialty medical care designed for children and young adults with developmental disabilities, chronic health conditions, and complex needs.
For children and young adults whose medical needs require more time, understanding, and a different approach.
Some children need more than a standard well-child visit. They need providers who understand how autism, sensory processing differences, behavioral challenges, and medical complexity intersect with routine healthcare. At the Anne Carlsen Specialty Clinic, we offer one-hour appointments in a sensory-friendly environment, providing primary and specialty medical care designed for children and young adults with developmental disabilities, chronic health conditions, and complex needs.
We offer extended visit times, sensory-friendly spaces, and a team trained to work with children who communicate and respond differently.
