Going Private

over 5 years ago

Living in a bad area and two of my friends have currently been waiting 2-3 years and no sign of an assessment yet and im prob back of the list now due to waiting so long then getting sent to the wrong person! I know its a lot of money but i do have many reasons to why id like to go private. But looking for some advice between these two places... 

https://www.purplehouseclinic.co.uk/learning-disabilities-autism/

the purple house clinic in Glasgow who can see me in June 

Or 

https://edinburghpractice.com/autism-assessments-for-adults/ 

And the Edinburgh Practise in well.. edinburgh.. Who can see me in 2 weeks. 

I dont know which one is best i emailed them on here but says it can take up to 27 days for a reply so they must be over loaded with emails just now. Can anyone help me decide as i dont have a clue what im looking for. 

Ive got a nikon full frame camera body i can sell to get the funds so it will help.. lol. 

Thank you :)

    When in June can they are you?  If it's not a question of speed for you in that at most the end of June is 6 weeks away i would go to the one that is closest to me as less of a journey traveling to a strange place etc would stress me out even more than I would be over the assessment.

    Edited to add. Having just looked at both web pages and the rest of their info, if I was to pick one it would be Edinburgh. But then I'm odd and the other web site made me feel uncomfortable.
