Reducing autism assessment waiting lists for NHS and social care providers

Waiting lists for Autism Assessments are a national problem with some areas facing waiting times of up to two years or even more.

A full multi-disciplinary team approach to autism assessment

Our assessment service involves access to the expert minds of not just one or two, but a full multi-disciplinary team of clinicians. Each specialist will assess the child from their own clinical perspective. 

This means delivering an exceptional quality of assessment. And if the diagnosis is not autism, or the autism is accompanied by other conditions, we can provide differential diagnoses and point families towards any additional assessment or support needed.

Our highly qualified Assessment Team comprises a Neurodevelopmental Paediatrician, a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, an Educational Psychologist and Speech & Language Therapist and a Lead Occupational Therapist in Learning Disabilities.
