Autism is Treatable
At HBTUSA’s Center of Excellence, patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder benefit from our comprehensive approach through education, consultations with our physicians and various therapeutic treatments including:
· Nutritional Support and Dietary Intervention
Integration of Biomedical and Behavioral Treatment Modality
HBTUSA’s innovative cutting edge approach helps families deal with the complex challenges of ASD, maximizing the potential of children with Autism, Attention Deficit and Developmental Delay.
Patrick L. Elliott D.O., F.A.C.S., Medical Director at HBTUSA's Newtown Square Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Center of Excellence, is a board certified general and trauma surgeon. His passion and belief that Autism Spectrum Disorder in an "acquired brain injury" with toxic and metabolic components associated with a genetic predisposition is based on his extensive personal experience as both a physician and parent of children with ASD. After his twin boys were both diagnosed with Autism at age 3 in 2004, he worked tirelessly to help his children overcome the challenges of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Using a combined behavioral and biomedical approach has yielded extraordinary results with both his twins and countless others he has helped and learned from along the way. In addition to the recommended standard interventions of speech, occupational therapy, sensory integration, applied behavioral analysis and floor time, Dr. Elliott's use of alternative interventions such as nutritional support, dietary intervention and when appropriate detoxification to treat heavy metal toxicities continues to help children improve dramatically and maximize potential of children with ASD, ADHD, Aspergers and other developmental delays.
The dramatic improvements he observed in his own children (and others) with the addition of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, led him to HBTUSA as its Medical Director. HBOT, which decreases inflammation and accelerates the healing process of wound and complex infections, has, through recent case studies, shown great promise in the treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury and other neurologic disorders. HBOT is an "off label” treatment for ASD (not FDA approved), however, improvement shown in case studies when using a hard chamber for this condition have been impressive.
After Dr. Elliott’s children were diagnosed with ASD 6 years ago....Dr. Elliott describes how his "panic " became "passion......his “desperation” became “determination” and as his children recovered and made dramatic improvement he saw his own “HOPE” for his boys turn into..."EXPECTATION".........
At HBTUSA Newtown Square we turn hope into expectation ...one patient, one family, one child at a time!"
