Caring for the Caregivers in the World of Autism: Dr. Matthew Fisher, MD
Dr. Matthew Fisher stopped by the media room for a chat with our host Kristin Walker. We were live at Springbrook’s Converge Autism Summit and we thought about how difficult it was to keep Dr. Fisher in that room, undisturbed for 15 minutes.
Why? Because he is needed.
Self-care amongst the caregivers became our focus for this conversation. Join us for a behind the scenes sneak peek in the world of self-care for caregivers.
Dr. Fisher completed his General Psychiatry residency at the University of Texas-Galveston and a Child/Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship at University of South Carolina. He serves as Medical leader of SpringBrook Autism’s Residential and Outpatient Treatment Program (specializing in treating Autism Spectrum Disorders) and is an authority in minimal medical management of ASD and ASD with comorbidities. Dr. Fisher speaks at Autism Conferences on Medical Overview of Autism Spectrum Disorders, Medication Management for Autism Spectrum Disorders, Myths and Misconceptions in Autism, Autism and Co-Morbid Conditions, and Helping Siblings and Other Children Understand Autism.
