Before you listen, I would like to make clear that it is not our intent to promote the diagnostic or treatment protocol for ADHD presented in this clinical encounter. Our sole purpose is to explore useful vocabulary and phrases when speaking to patients and their families about the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD in Spanish. Finally, if you haven’t done so already, I recommend you listen to the first part of this clinical encounter: ADHD in Spanish – Problemas en la escuela.
