Hi, my partner is looking for a provider or a private autism assessment and there seems to be lots of providers online but we don’t know how to pick a good one. Does anyone know what to look for in a website in terms of qualifications, standards, bodies, etc, to know it is going to be a reputable provider? There doesn’t seem to be a number you can call in this site and the organisations in the directory aren’t actually recommended only listed, and Mind can’t help. Do I need to contact NICE or the GMC? I’m lost.. any help would be very gratefully received.
When I was looking the one I chose states that their diagnosis is recognised by the NHS, so maybe have a look on each places website for more information or contact them to ask them?
Just to update you, we now have an appointment with Psychiatry UK. Thank you so much for your help, it’s because of this forum that we found a solution so it’s much appreciated.
