Testimonials

“Thank you for advocating for my daughter yesterday for her advisor. We are so appreciative of the care you have shown her over the past 7 years. We were very lucky to have "found" you and just know that you are making a profound difference in her life.“

“Everyone loves your report! Thanks so much.”

“We want to sincerely thank you for the thoughtfulness and care that you gave to our son during this process. It is very apparent that you are passionate about helping kids like him.

You were amazing. He feels so happy and has a new sense of confidence. His exact words ‘I’m going to work hard to fix my traffic jam so I can change the world!’”

“YAY!!! Thank you so very, very much!

You have been exceptional.”

“Thanks for everything, Amy. We learned so much yesterday and feel better equipped than ever before to help him with his strengths and weaknesses. It was clear you “got him” and that meant so much to us. We will be in touch as we go through the process of bolstering him.”

“WOW I am beyond thrilled! You are so amazing! I only want YOU to do it!! Did I mention you changed my daughter’s life?!”

“Hi Amy, Thank you so much. I am truly filled with gratitude that we found you, and that finally someone has articulated - in such an intelligent, thoughtful and caring way - what I see on a day to day basis.”

“Dear Dr. Schwartz,
You are extremely talented. Thank you. This is one of the best reports I have ever read.

While information is hard to hear about your own child, I am breathing deeply and making a plan:)”

“I leave this up to you, you always have the right answer.”

"Dr. Schwartz brings a vibrancy and enthusiasm to her work that is infectious, and she deals with all people, from the most senior psychiatrist to the most troubled young child, with a style that is both down-to-earth and genuine."

"Dr. Schwartz’s role was transformational. We were referred to Dr. Schwartz by our wonderful neuropsychiatrist, when we needed a thorough neuro-psych evaluation to try to create a cogent understanding of the deficits that our son was dealing with. It was always challenging to encourage our son to attend and fully engage in this type of testing. I have to say that Dr. Schwartz was wonderful in her grasp of the emotional aspects of this type of test. She was so comforting, in fact, that my son was able to get to the task at hand and finish on an emotional high."

"Dr. Schwartz’s thoughtfulness, wisdom, and warmth feel instantly apparent."

"Dr. Schwarz’s sensitive analysis of my son’s disabilities finally provided our educators with the information they needed to allow our son to address his deficits and begin to flourish."

"Everything Amy has recommended has been spot on. We have followed her advice on all fronts and each of our children she has evaluated are thriving academically, socially and personally at their respective schools."

"We value Amy so much for her warmth, her lovely way with children and her sharp mind. She has taught us how important it is to test to "tease out" what the issues are for a child in a very thorough and methodical neuropsychological evaluation. I have recommended Amy to many friends who have been equally impressed by her keen mind and her warm heart."

"Dr. Schwartz conducts pediatric neuropsychological assessments with great skills and a well-developed capacity to integrate large amounts of complex information to form meaningful clinical and diagnostic profiles of children and adolescents. I have referred child patients of mine from my private practice to her for assessment. She invariably has performed assessments that are exceptional. Parents of my child patients have come to me after feedback sessions with Dr. Schwartz, and spoken glowingly about her thoroughness, clinical acumen, empathy, and warmth. Perhaps most important, my child patients themselves have without exception remarked on how comfortable they have felt in Dr. Schwartz’ presence and of how she made the evaluation process fun."

"Amy came into our lives approximately six months after one of our three children first began attending kindergarten at our local public school. Our daughter has a mild to moderate, bi-lateral sensorineural hearing loss, wears hearing aids and uses an FM unit. She was not learning to read or write according to the manner and time frame in which all of the other full hearing children in her gifted and talented program were. Further, her teacher never communicated to us that there was a problem, so we were caught unawares when her teacher unceremoniously washed her hands of our daughter during the last face-to-face Parent Teacher conference for the year. She referred us to the school guidance counselor, who recommended that we have a neurological and neuropsychological evaluation done on our daughter, to put our fingers on what the issues were.

“Amy is the full package. Besides being very personable, she has the training, experience and academic credentials to get the job done. In addition, her reports are very thorough and appreciated by professionals especially because they always include, at the end, useful and practical recommendations which parents, teachers and service providers can implement and refer back to for inspiration.”

"Dr. Schwartz’s style instantly puts people at ease and she creates an environment where people are comfortable sharing and asking questions. She was our expert speaker for one of our kiddybites monthly parenting seminars. Dr. Schwartz responded to our members needs by creating and developing a detailed, well organized, engaging, and extremely informative talk on the "ERBs." Weeks after her talk, we continued to receive dozens of emails requesting her now infamous 17-page hand-out from that evening. We are already looking forward to Dr. Schwartz’s next seminar!"

"Few evaluators are as thorough and comprehensive as Dr. Schwartz, and I have worked with many…she develops a warm, friendly rapport with her students and is truly able to "read between the lines" in coming up with an accurate, well-thought-out diagnosis. I have recommended Dr. Schwartz to many families and will continue to do so in the future."

"Dr. Schwartz’s neuropsychological evaluation has provided me with enormous insights into the obstacles which interfere with a child’s ability to learn with ease. As a Speech-Language Pathologist already working with a child Dr. Schwartz has evaluated, I am able to appreciate her skill for making a child comfortable during formal testing in order to grasp the child’s strengths and difficulties. Dr. Schwartz’s clearly written analysis of her formal test findings has helped me to understand why I need to modify the speech and language intervention I provide for a child, and her specific recommendations have helped in directing my modifications. Dr. Schwartz’s use of additional specific recommendations for teachers and parents contribute to a coordinated effort to lessen the obstacles to learning for the benefit of the child."

"Dr. Schwartz was incredibly thorough and provided me with a very detailed evaluation that really presented all of my daughter’s strengths and weaknesses. She was very accommodating and flexible with providing me with reports that I was able to submit to various people with specific goals in mind. Her fees given her thorough and very comprehensive evaluations were very fair and affordable. In addition, Dr. Schwartz’s recommendations section was very detailed and specific to my daughter’s learning style and issues and lastly, she was able to complete the entire process of testing and consulting in a very timely manner."
