What is the main difference between" neurologist"and" pediatric neurologist" Can my son (2 years 8 months) be treated by neurologist (not pediatric neurologist) for global development disorder (Rx was-"? Autism" on 1st appointment held 3 months back). Or, is it compulsory to meet pediatric neurologist (he is 400 kms away from my home)

Pediatric neurologists specialise in dealing with cases of children. If there is non available in years city you may go for the general neurologists also.
