My 6 year old son has severe constipation, and we just can't get to the bottom of it. Can anyone recommend a specialist that understands the specific GI issues related to autism?

TIA

We were impressed with Specially for Children's gastro department, but I don't know if any of them deal specifically with autistic children. It would likely be worth it to call and ask.

I would imagine that all pediatric GIs are familiar with Autism, since so many autistic kids have GI issues.

Specially for Children has the only pediatric GI department in Austin, they also have a complex care team for children with multiple issues.

The GI department and complex care team are bursting with patients, you will probably get in faster if you have your pedi make a referral.

good luck!
