As the father of an autistic son, Tom Butler says that a new virtual clinic—dedicated to diagnosing children with autistic disorders—could prove valuable for frustrated parents.

“There’s something to be said for in-person visits. But really, I think you can see a lot more behaviors when the child is in his own environment. So that’s where I think an online ‘visit’ can be a good thing,” said Butler, 55, of Monroe, Ohio, told The Epoch Times.
