  • "Dr. Maynard treated my son for his tracking issues in first grade. He is profoundly Dyslexic and should be noted that vision therapy is not a resource for dyslexia but his eye muscles were immature and this caused headaches and eye strain which hindered Ian in the classroom where he was already working overtime in processing. Dr. Maynard was wonderful at putting him at ease and making it fun strengthening those eye muscles. His tracking greatly improved and I highly recommend her for this therapy. She is very patient, kind and informed."
