What this is, in plain language

Wolfson Children's Hospital's autism programme covers screening, neuropsychological testing, applied behaviour analysis, and speech, occupational and physical therapy for autistic children and adults, alongside outpatient and inpatient behavioural health care. It also has extra supports in place for autistic children who need blood draws, a hospital stay, or surgery.

Getting started

A referral from your physician or another provider is required before Wolfson will schedule a neuropsychological evaluation — call the testing office once you have one. Some programmes, such as the Early Autism Intervention Program, use their own physician referral form instead.

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.
