Important Information
The assessment process is designed to ensure that any diagnosis is careful, accurate, and clinically responsible, rather than based on a single test or questionnaire.
Where possible, additional information may be gathered from someone who knows you well (such as a partner or parent) to support a comprehensive understanding of developmental history and current functioning.
Appointment bookings are confirmed following agreement to the practice terms and conditions, which include information about fees, payment arrangements, and cancellation policies.
