Healthcare Professionals Supporting Our Children
This is a list of professionals recommended by DSAJ members in the birth to five years old group. The feedback is based on members who responded and liked the doctor that were serving their child with Down syndrome. It is not conclusive, and we are aware that there are many other professionals in the Jacksonville area that serve our children well. We will keep this list updated as additional references are received.
