What this is, in plain language

A one-day autism assessment for children aged 1 to 6, done by a team that can include psychologists, physicians, occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists. Recommendations for services and treatment are discussed the same day as the visit.

Getting started

Discuss your child's symptoms with your paediatrician to see if the centre is the right next step, then call to arrange an assessment; before the visit you'll get an email with questionnaires and rating scales about your child, taking roughly 1–2 hours, which the team reviews before scheduling the assessment day.

Written from what the provider publishes, to save you decoding it. It describes the service; it is not our view of how good it is.

What they say about themselves

Taken from the provider's own website. We have not verified the claims — the parent reviews below are the other half of the picture.

  • A multidisciplinary centre whose team includes paediatric neurologists, psychiatrists, psychologists, developmental-behaviour paediatricians, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists and ABA therapists, described as a medical home under one roof.
  • Assessments are offered for children aged 1 to 6, typically in a single one-day visit, with recommendations discussed the same day.
  • Before the visit, families complete questionnaires and rating scales that take roughly 1 to 2 hours; the team reviews them before scheduling the assessment.
  • After a diagnosis it coordinates ongoing care, family education and support programmes, and gives input to help the school create an individualised education programme (IEP).
