PEAK Developmental Pediatrics

Developmental Pediatrics With Time to Listen. Expertise to Understand. A Clearer Path Forward.

When you're concerned about your child's development, attention, learning, behavior, or social communication, you want more than a quick appointment and a diagnosis.

You want someone who will listen carefully, understand the whole child, explain what is happening, and help you know what to do next.

PEAK Developmental Pediatrics provides comprehensive, personalized developmental care for children and adolescents in Vancouver, Washington and the greater Portland area.

Over 20 Years of Experience

Serving the greater Portland and Vancouver region with Telemedicine available throughout Washington and Oregon.

Developmental Questions Can Feel Overwhelming.

You may be wondering:

Is this ADHD?

Could this be autism?

Why is school so difficult?

Why does my child struggle with things that seem easy for other children?

Is my child's development on track?

What should we do next?

You don't have to figure it out alone.

PEAK Developmental Pediatrics is here to help you understand your child's development and find a clearer path forward.

Your Child Is More Than a Diagnosis

Developmental concerns are rarely simple.

A child's attention, behavior, learning, communication, emotions, and relationships are all connected. Understanding those connections takes time, experience, and a thoughtful approach.

At PEAK, we look beyond a checklist of symptoms to understand your child's unique strengths, challenges, developmental history, and environment.

Our goal isn't simply to identify what is wrong.

It's to help you understand what is happening, why it may be happening, and what you can do about it.

Comprehensive Developmental Care

PEAK offers personalized care for children and adolescents with concerns involving:

  • ADHD and attention difficulties

  • Autism and social communication

  • Learning and academic difficulties

  • Developmental delays

  • Behavioral concerns

  • Executive functioning

  • Emotional and behavioral regulation

  • Communication and social development

  • School-related challenges

  • Complex developmental and behavioral concerns

Whether you're seeking an initial evaluation or ongoing care, our approach is individualized to your child and your family's needs.

Our Services

All appointments can be completed via Telemedicine if requested

Comprehensive Developmental Evaluations

When you need answers, we take the time to understand the complete picture.

A comprehensive evaluation considers your child's developmental history, behavior, learning, communication, strengths, challenges, and the concerns that brought you to our practice.

You will receive a thoughtful clinical assessment, clear diagnostic explanation, and practical recommendations designed to help your child move forward.

Ongoing Developmental Pediatric Care

Development doesn't stop after an evaluation.

For families who want continued support, PEAK provides ongoing developmental pediatric care focused on your child's changing needs.

We can help monitor development, address behavioral and learning concerns, coordinate recommendations, and adjust the plan as your child grows.

Medication Management

For children who may benefit from medication, treatment should be part of a larger developmental plan—not the entire plan.

Medication management at PEAK combines careful assessment, individualized treatment decisions, monitoring, and ongoing communication with families

Why Families Choose PEAK

Over 20 Years of Experience

Complex developmental concerns require experience.

Dr. Huillet brings three decades of experience caring for children and families across developmental pediatrics, academic medicine, military medicine, and large healthcare systems.

That experience allows him to look beyond individual symptoms and consider the larger developmental picture.

Time to Listen and Understand

Your child's story matters.

PEAK is intentionally designed to provide the time necessary to understand your concerns, review your child's history, and thoughtfully consider the information you provide.

You should never feel rushed through a conversation about your child.

One Physician. Personalized Care.

At PEAK, your child's care is physician-led and personal.

You work directly with an experienced developmental pediatrician who takes the time to understand your child and your family's goals.

Clear Answers and Practical Guidance

An evaluation should give you more than a diagnosis.

It should help you understand your child and know what to do next.

We translate complex developmental information into practical recommendations that can be used at home, at school, and in your child's broader care.

A Whole-Child Perspective

Children don't develop in isolated categories.

Attention, learning, communication, behavior, emotional regulation, relationships, and development influence one another.

PEAK considers the whole child—not just the reason you made the appointment.

Meet Dr. Huillet

Experienced. Thoughtful. Committed to Children and Families.

I'm Dr. Adam Huillet, a board-certified developmental pediatrician with over 20 years of experience caring for children and families.

Throughout my career, I've worked in developmental pediatrics, academic medicine, military medicine, and large healthcare systems. I've cared for children with a wide range of developmental and behavioral needs and have had the privilege of working with families from many different backgrounds and cultures.

Over time, I became increasingly convinced that families need something that can be difficult to find in traditional healthcare:

Time.

Time to tell their child's story.

Time to understand complicated developmental concerns.

Time to ask questions.

And time to develop a thoughtful plan.

I created PEAK Developmental Pediatrics to provide that kind of care.

My goal is simple: to partner with families, help them understand their child, and provide the expertise and guidance they need to move forward with confidence.

Why Is PEAK Private Pay?

A Different Model of Developmental Care

PEAK does not bill health insurance directly.

This allows us to design care around the needs of your child and family rather than around insurance requirements.

A private-pay model gives us greater flexibility to provide the time and individualized attention that developmental care often requires.

This means we can focus on:

  • Understanding your child's complete developmental history

  • Providing comprehensive evaluations

  • Taking the time to answer your questions

  • Developing individualized recommendations

  • Providing thoughtful follow-up care

  • Building an ongoing relationship with your family

We provide families with a superbill that can be submitted to their insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Coverage and reimbursement vary by plan, so families should contact their insurance company directly to understand their benefits.

Pricing and Fees

We believe families should have clear information about the cost of care. Our practice is a private-pay model, which allows us to provide longer visits, comprehensive evaluations, and individualized attention.

Although we do not bill insurance directly, many families use out-of-network benefits and submit a superbill for possible reimbursement.

New Patient Evaluation

Comprehensive Diagnostic Evaluation

A full developmental evaluation is designed to understand the complete picture of a child’s development and provide clear guidance for families.

The evaluation typically includes:

• Detailed developmental and medical history
• Clinical observation and developmental assessment
• Review of school, therapy, and prior evaluations when available
• Diagnostic clarification when appropriate
• Comprehensive written report
• Individualized recommendations for home, school, and therapy

Fee: $500 per hour

Many evaluations will be completed in the first 1-2 hours of face to face time and a good faith estimate of total cost will be provided after requested intake paperwork is reviewed.

Follow-Up Visits

Follow-up visits provide continued guidance as children grow and developmental needs change.

These visits may include:

• Developmental progress monitoring
• School and therapy planning
• Behavioral guidance
• Coordination with other professionals involved in care

Follow-up visit (30 minutes): $250

Medication Management

For children who benefit from medication treatment, we provide careful monitoring and follow-up.

Visits focus on:

• Medication effectiveness
• Adjustment of treatment when needed
• Monitoring growth, sleep, appetite, and school functioning
• Integrating medication into a broader developmental care plan

Medication management visit (15 minutes): $125

Insurance and Superbills

PEAK Developmental Pediatrics does not bill insurance directly. However, many families receive partial reimbursement through out-of-network benefits.

After your visit, we provide a superbill containing the medical and billing codes required for insurance submission.

Families can submit this document directly to their insurance company.

Questions About Fees

We understand that developmental evaluations are an important investment for families. If you have questions about our services, fees, or the evaluation process, we are happy to help.

Please contact our office for additional information.Insurance and Payment

Why We Do Not Bill Insurance

At PEAK Developmental Pediatrics, our goal is to provide thoughtful, thorough care for children and families. Developmental evaluations and follow-up visits often require more time and individualized attention than traditional insurance-based models allow.

By operating outside of insurance networks, we are able to:

  • Spend more time with families during evaluations and visits

  • Provide comprehensive developmental assessments without restrictive time limits

  • Focus on clinical care rather than insurance requirements and authorizations

  • Offer personalized recommendations tailored to each child’s needs

This approach allows us to structure visits around what is most helpful for families and children rather than what is dictated by insurance policies.

Using Out-of-Network Benefits

Although we do not bill insurance companies directly, many families are able to use their out-of-network benefits to receive partial reimbursement.

After your visit, we will provide a superbill, which is a detailed receipt that includes the information insurance companies typically require for reimbursement.

A superbill generally includes:

  • The provider’s information and credentials

  • The date and type of service provided

  • Diagnosis and billing codes

  • The amount paid for the visit

Families can submit this document directly to their insurance company. Depending on the specifics of your insurance plan, you may receive partial reimbursement for services.

Checking Your Benefits

If you plan to submit a superbill for reimbursement, it may be helpful to contact your insurance provider ahead of time and ask about:

  • Out-of-network benefits for developmental or behavioral pediatric services

  • Deductibles and reimbursement percentages

  • Whether a referral is required

While reimbursement cannot be guaranteed, many families are able to receive partial coverage through their insurance plans.
