Nigerian Doctor Launches Virtual Clinic for Autism Evaluations in US
Nigerian Doctor Launches Virtual Clinic for Autism Evaluations in US: Dr. Hokehe Eko, a Nigerian doctor, has launched a pioneering virtual clinic called Glow Pediatrics
for evaluating children with autism in the United States. The virtual clinic offers attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD) and autism evaluations for children between 18 months to 10 years old in Oklahoma, Georgia, and Maryland in the United States.
Dr. Eko founded Glow Pediatrics as an innovative pediatric integrative medicine practice that takes a holistic approach
to address the physical, emotional, and developmental needs of children. Dr. Eko emphasizes the importance of early
evaluation, stating that understanding a child’s behavior and needs is crucial for supporting them, even if they don’t receive any therapy.

The virtual ADHD and autism evaluations at Glow Pediatrics are one-to-two-hour sessions, and after examining the patient,
Dr. Eko prepares a detailed analysis and discusses the findings and recommendations in a follow-up appointment.
The clinic also hosts weekly Glow Health Circles, offering patients a supportive community and fostering accountability on their health journeys.
Dr. Eko, a Brain Health Consultant and Board-Certified Pediatrician with over a decade of experience, takes a root-cause approach
when treating ADHD and autism, considering physical and environmental factors. She is better able to differentiate between
neuro-typical and neuro-atypical behaviors and identify other factors at play, such as ADHD, depression, anxiety, OCD, intellectual delays, or other medical conditions. Dr. Eko’s experience and expertise make Glow Pediatrics a valuable resource for families seeking support for their children with autism or ADHD.
