Hi,
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia will be good for you because they are big.

Sometimes, after the child (or adult) is treated properly, most of the troubling behaviors stop.

I'm not up to date on the language of special education requirements in the schools. But after you get a medical diagnosis from a psychiatrist you can advocate for your son with regard to teachers and admin at his school.

The herapist can help you monitor the child's changes in behavior due to medications.

Look at moodtracker.com and google "mood chart" to help you keep track of meds, possible side effects, symptoms, and so on if you are not already doing something like that.

If your nutritional approach is working, keep it up. Fine tuning the diet can make a big difference.
