“Dr. Agin is the first person who completely understands our daughter and has been able to help us to identify all of her issues exactly correctly and early and document them to assist us in having the backup we need to get her the services she needs.  She is approachable, reachable, available, and the most thorough evaluator/doctor I have encountered.  An appointment with her office is well worth the wait!”
Karen Agnifilo

“Dr. Agin has not just made an incredible difference in the lives of both our children; she has changed our family's fortunes for the better. Her breadth of knowledge about neurodevelopmental disorders is astonishing, but what makes her so valuable as a doctor is the sense of compassion, calm, and care she emanates. She is helpful in ways large and small, from writing a letter or report that convinces a governmental agency to offer needed services to suggesting the name of a particularly appropriate therapist or school. We feel she truly knows our children: their quirks, their challenges, their strengths. Having her as the overall go-to person for our children's cases makes life manageable rather than overwhelming.”
Sarah Birnbaum

“Not only does Dr. Agin provide astute knowledge, guidance and expertise, but, cares so much that she gives a piece of herself.  Dr. Agin has been and continues to be our guardian angel and our beacon of light.  We have placed our son's present and future well being in her hands with implicit trust and confidence.  I don't know where we'd be without her.”
Bill Fichera

"Our son Jack is 4 1/2, and started seeing Dr. Agin at the age of 2. As my husband and I began the process to understand why our child was not communicating, listening, and playing appropriately as other kids his age, we wanted a trusted opinion. Dr. Agin diagnosed him with Autism. She then helped us get on a path to begin working with Jack and getting him the services that he needed. Additionally, as we went through the process with New York City to get the best services, Dr. Agin's reports and direct involvement helped speed up the process to provide our son with needed therapy. Today Jack is one of the hardest working people we know, and is now an inquisitive, verbal little guy. He still has lots of work ahead of him, and every 6 months we see Dr. Agin, and together chart Jack's progress and continue to discuss future goals.”

“My son already had a diagnosis when we first arrived for an initial consult with Dr. Agin and her team.  What we didn't know was how we should intervene.  That is where Dr. Agin's expertise and experience made all the difference! There are very few people who impacted my family's life in such a dramatic fashion as Dr. Agin and her team. Dr Agin and her team's 360 degree comprehensive assessment goes further than the typical medical evaluation to include educational, behavioral, and socialization. Beyond the evaluations, there is a powerful credo at work within Dr. Agin's practice–-helping families make truly well informed decisions and chart an course for the future that integrates all the disciplines that are so critical to our children's care and well being”.

"Finding Dr. Agin was like finding an oasis in a desert. Her personal dedication to her young patients, and their parents, is remarkable. In an age when so many doctors are far too rushed, she takes the time to actually get to know a child, allowing her to give invaluable guidance on treatment and educational placement. She regularly goes 'above and beyond' the call of duty, such as coming to visit my son at his school,  sending late night e-mails, and making after-hour phone calls to check in or follow up on conversations. Dr. Agin is proof that there are still doctors who really care.  I will be eternally grateful to her for all that she has done for my son."

"We are the parents of four children, three of whom have been diagnosed with developmental delays ranging from severe apraxia, sensory integration dysfunction, ADHD, and a visual learning disability.  We have known Dr. Agin for the past seven years and can say without hesitation that she has been the most important member of our team.  Her evaluations and accurate diagnosis gave us the tools we needed to advocate for the appropriate early intervention necessary for their recovery and success.  She has always gone above and beyond -- giving so freely of her knowledge and time.  Today they are all thriving academically, athletically, and socially.  They are our miracles, and she is our miracle worker.  We are blessed as a family to have her on our side.”

“Our 2 ½ year old daughter was not speaking and we needed help.  Dr. Agin gave her a diagnosis and a plan.  We followed this plan and shortly thereafter our daughter began speaking and hugged and kissed us for the first time.  Thank you Dr. Agin!”
Mary M  

“Our son has been a patient of Dr. Agin for 4 years now. Our son had severe Apraxia.He has made tremendous progress and has come a long way with Dr. Agin guiding us in the right direction with our son's diagnosis. It is so rewarding for us and I am sure for Dr. Agin to see the point where he is today. We are so appreciative to Dr. Agin and her work.”

“We had a terrible experience with a developmental pediatrician who had given us a very bleak prognosis for our daughter before we found Dr. Agin.  Dr. Agin changed our whole outlook about what our daughter was capable of doing socially and academically.  Because of her encouragement, we sent our daughter to a day camp for typical children without an aide and she did fantastically well.  We probably never would have had the courage to do that without a little push from Dr. Agin.  She is such a kind, compassionate, and caring person.  She spent more time evaluating our daughter and did far more thorough testing than any other doctor we had seen.  Our daughter's standardized test results from second grade were at the "Proficient" level for both Mathematics and Language Arts.  She is now successfully mainstreamed in third grade.  We believe that all of this was possible because of Dr. Agin's terrific advice and support.”
Beth Rabin

“Dr. Agin was an invaluable resource to our family in addressing our sons' verbal apraxia. Her expertise and knowledge of the disorder truly helped us in making the right decisions for ongoing treatment.  We highly recommend Dr. Agin and her staff.”

"Dr. Agin,You are such an awesome source of information for us, not just because of your vast knowledge, but most importantly because of your professionalism, attention, care and compassion when dealing with our us and our children. Thank you,"
