twinkletoesmomma Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Am I allowed to cross post this to the General Board? Will I possibly get more info there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCW Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I encourage you to consider Dr. Stanley Applebaum http://www.optometrists.org/Bethesda/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkletoesmomma Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Thank you. I would look into him some more. Would you mind telling me about your experience? That would be an extremely long drive for me. There are 5 other "fellows" that are closer that I'd love to get feedback about. I'm just not able to find many reviews or information about them.

amyable Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Years ago we went to Dr. Harris in Timonium...we loved him but unfortunately he moved far away. He has refered all his patients to a Dr. Sless. Here is some info: http://paulharrisod.com/records-and-going-care I know nothing about Dr. Sless personally, but I do trust Dr. Harris' judgement on recommending someone, FWIW.

twinkletoesmomma Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Thank you. I have heard good things about Dr. Harris, but Dr. Sless isn't on the covd website. I'll see what else I can find out about him. I'm having trouble even finding a website for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCW Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I realized after I posted that he's quite a bit south of where you were mentioning. He has offices in Annapolis and Bethesda. Dr. Applebaum is married to an OT, and they collaborate to provide services when needed. He lectures nationally (I attended one of his courses, taught with an OT), and at that time he mentioned that he hired optometrists to do the vision therapy in his office. Vision Therapists are often teachers with extra training - there is no degree program for VTs, just specialty classes and supervision by an OD. Dr. Applebaum has co-authored Eye Power: http://www.amazon.com/Eye-Power-Updated-Report-Therapy/dp/1439221790/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1320698156&sr=8-11 I wish I had taken my son to him when we lived in the area, but I didn't know then what I know now....didn't even know he existed then. If I lived in PA I'd be tempted to give him a call and see if he recommends anyone particular in my area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
