I would highly recommend Solihull Autism Assessment Service. We used them to assessment our teenage daughter, we could not wait the 18 months for the initial appointment on the NHS - she would have left school by the time she had been diagnosed! They were professional, friendly and sensitive. They explained every step of the process to us and fully liaised with school and other services involved. Initial appointment to diagnosis was 2 months! The report is incredibly detailed and the feedback session where diagnosis was confirmed with our daughter present was done in the most positive and sensitive way highlighting all her strengths. THANK YOU!

I finally understand so much more about myself now and can help those around me as I learn more and more about ASD. Zoe and Jessica were friendly, patient and professional throughout. I am enlightened and finally empowered to move forward now. Diagnosis was daunting at first for me as I was very anxious but I was always treated with respect throughout the whole assessment. Thank you so much.

I thoroughly recommend this service. After struggling with symptoms of ASD which were impacting on daily life I decided to opt for this service rather than fester on an NHS waiting list. I felt that the service was reasonably priced and worth a fast-track service. I got my diagnosis in 6 weeks and it would have been quicker had it not been for the Christmas period. Both assessors were friendly and made the assessment as easy as possible. I can now ask my employer for reasonable adjustments and I can understand myself better. I’m very happy with the service I received.
