DISCLAIMER -- PLEASE READ

ARI’s Clinician Registry lists practitioners who provide biomedically-based treatment for children and adults with autism. Many of these practitioners are physicians, and others offer related services in healthcare.

In order to better serve the community, ARI has altered the requirements for inclusion on the list of Defeat Autism Now! practitioners. The first list includes clinicians who are licensed healthcare providers. The clinician must attend a Defeat Autism Now! Clinician Seminar at least once every two years. We also require a signed statement asserting that the clinician subscribes to and conducts his/her practice in accordance with the Defeat Autism Now!® philosophy. There are naturopaths and homeopaths who offer the Defeat Autism Now! approach, who are not required by state law to have a license in their field of practice; they are included on a second list. And finally, there are nutritionists who offer the Defeat Autism Now! approach, who are also not required to have a license to practice this approach.

As before, the Autism Research Institute disclaims and does not endorse or support any individual or entity listed; makes no representations, warranties, guarantees or promises on behalf of or for those listed, and assumes no liability nor responsibility for any service or product provided. ARI does not "certify" practitioners or guarantee competence, skill, knowledge, or experience.

We strongly recommend that if you are seeking a practitioner to help with your child's biomedical needs you interview the practitioner of your choosing to ensure that they are well-versed and experienced in the various aspects of the biomedical approach. View a sampling of recommended questions.

We strongly recommend that you read the introduction located at the top of the list.
