Child Provider Specialists

"Had testing for my daughter done by Dr. Michael Rizzo years ago when she was in Elementary School. She was seen by a Neurologist as well on Prescribed Med for ADHD and it helped insure her progress re: hyperactivity and focusing. She graduated College. I also helped her with schoolwork and was/am a strong advocate for her as well to always insure her progress. She is smart, special and deserves a good profession as do the other kids/ young adults with ADD/ ADHD. They just need extra help and attention as well, Documentation of Accomodations and Medical History. Was very satisfied with Dr. Michael Rizzo, his testing, understanding, advice, suggestions when the public school didn' t want to pay to have her tested and I am glad we went to him!.....:) Years later she received her Bachelors Degree and is a Licensed RN. So proud.....:)"

"Meeting Dr. Rizzo was, now, what we refer to as one of the best things to have ever happened to our son. When your child is struggling not only academically, but socially, there feels like there are only so many options. Dr. Rizzo provided our family with a diagnosis that assured our family that our son would succeed both academically and socially through his unique perception as an individual student. With Dr. Rizzo’s direction, the school was able to provide our son with the tools he needed to prosper, and more importantly how he can use his learning disability to his advantage."

"As an educational consultant and advocate for students who learn differently, I can say beyond a doubt that Dr. Rizzo and his team at Child Provider Specialists are the absolute best when it comes to supporting children and their families in understanding their cognitive strengths and weaknesses. By helping families understand the ways in which they learn best, Dr. Rizzo and his team guide them to the right people, supports, and interventions to meet their individual needs. I highly recommended Dr. Rizzo!"

"As an educator and principal for nearly 20 years, I can say that there is no better partner in supporting children and their families than Dr. Rizzo and the professionals at Child Provider Specialists. Dr. Rizzo is kind, thorough, and incredibly knowledgeable. He and his team only care about what matters most - helping all children grow and achieve individual success."

"The entire staff at the Naples "The Bridge" location has been amazing. They have been working with my son for over a year and I can honestly say that the growth we have seen in him has been incredible. The staff is caring, patient and extremely knowledgeable. In my opinion there is no other place like it in Southwest Florida for kids that require unique learning at their own pace. Thank you to Dr. Rizzo, Miss McIntosh and Miss Kinnear for all that you do! A special thanks as well to the "Coaches and Shadows" that have been there from day one. We are so blessed to have you guys work with our son. Looking forward to many more years of learning at The Bridge in Naples."
