Hillsborough, CA - Dr. Ivy Fisher, a retired pediatrician renowned for her work with autistic children, is thrilled to announce the launch of her dedicated services catering to families and individuals dealing with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This new chapter follows her distinguished career in general pediatrics, where she nurtured a specialty in behavioral abnormalities, especially ASD.
Dr. Fisher’s journey toward becoming a leading consultant in autism didn’t follow a conventional path. Starting her scientific career at Brandeis University and transitioning to pediatrics at Stanford University, Dr. Fisher discovered an affinity for working with children that would define her career. As she delved deeper into pediatrics, her unique understanding of autism, enhanced by personal experiences with her son, set her apart.
Her son, a testament to overcoming early developmental hurdles, is now independently living and thriving. With degrees in Musical Theater and Drama from UC Irvine, he exemplifies the high-functioning capabilities that many autistic individuals possess, despite initial communication or behavior issues.
Dr. Fisher underscores the spectrum nature of autism, explaining that the disorder presents with varying degrees of intensity in speech delays, atypical behaviors, and sensory sensitivities.
Dr. Fisher concludes, “Each autistic child is unique. None fit a single mold or narrative. My goal is to help families see and harness the potential in their children, and offer them a pathway to success and fulfillment.”
