ADHD symptoms in 2 year old.

Question

Asked for Female, 33 Years

Hello, Recently had taken my son to a pediatrician as he was unwell. The doctor noted that my son doesn't concentrate or make eye contact and also speech is delayed. He suspects ADHD symptoms and referred to a psychiatrist for evaluation. I want to take second opinion about this, what are the risks of this behaviour, can it be corrected?
