Sutcliffe Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics

We were referred to Dr Sutcliffe by our pediatrician. Dr Sutcliffe helped explain our daughter’s behavior to us and referred us to Occupational Therapy. Our daughter excelled in Occupational Therapy, and is getting ready to «graduate.» We are now working on Parent Interaction therapy with another of the staff here, Michelle. We have had one session so far, but Michelle says we will be pros at it by the time we are done. I’m excited to learn more about how we can improve our relationship with out daughter by our interactions, even the small ones.

We have been with Dr. Sutcliffe for 3 years, following her from PAMF to her wonderful private practice in Los Altos. She has been instrumental in helping our 8 year old son to his first success in school, Occupational Therapy and summer camp. She is always responsive and practical in her treatment and works with us to improve our family life. Thanks Dr. S.

Called Dr Sutcliffe for some support with my son and she and her staff were fantastic. She tried to fit him and followed up by email immediately. Great patient service.

A friend recommended Dr Sutcliffe to me regarding my daughter and her speech delay. I can’t thank her enough. Dr Sutcliffe is phenomenal. She is patient, caring, smart, educated and thinks about all aspects of the child and family. I can’t imagine someone better. If you are even thinking of meeting with her, don’t hesitate.

We were referred to Dr. Sutcliffe by our pediatrician shortly after an initial screening by a speech therapist. That therapist scared us something awful by throwing around terms like — sensory processing disorder, speech delay and possibly autism after only a 30 minute evaluation. Dr Sutcliffe real helped us understand the landscape and worked together with our OT and our sons teachers to figure out what our son needed. Now we have a happy almost 5 year old sensory seeker that is beloved by family, friends and teachers. Thank Trenna! You are the best.

We have been seeing Trenna Sutcliffe, MD, for 3 years, and she is absolutely amazing. She first assessed my son at 12 months, diagnosed him with autism at 15 months, and has been following him since his diagnosis. (She also followed our neurotypical daughter for 2 years.) After my son was diagnosed our family was at a loss, but Dr. Sutcliffe guided us to all of the necessary services and resources (e.g., regional center, ABA, yahoo listserves). In the past three years she has been an incredible source of support and knowledge for our family. She never hesitates to go the extra mile or to make an appropriate referral (e.g., to psychiatry, for Pivotal Response Therapy). She genuinely cares about the well-​being of our son and our entire family, and her compassion makes her stand out among the practitioners we have seen. She is very familiar with the research on treatments for autism, but is not so rigid as to reject ideas outside the mainstream literature that parents may elect to pursue. She has been instrumental in helping my son to grow and develop, despite his diagnosis. I highly recommend her practice.
