Diagnosis and assessment for my 4 year old son

DAD TO 4

Good Evening,

Hopefully you'll be able to help my concern, After my son were just of 1 year of age he developed very differencely than my other 3 children now nearly 4 years old.

As doctors, nursery and health vistors adviced us to seek medical attention as they felt he were under the austism spectrum disorder anyway we finally seek seeing a pediatrician he which he were confirm to be somewhere on the spectrum and would send him to a austism spectrum disorder specialist team in which we have just recieved a letter stating he does not meet there criteria and wont remain on there waiting list and refer us back to our doctor then back to the pediatrcian.

How can this be ?

Why didnt we get to go to this meeting ASMPACT ?

  • Hi,

    Given that doctors, nursery staff, health vistors and a pediatrician have raised concerns, i would also ask your GP for a re-referral or a reconsideration of his condition by a different specialist. I'm not sure why you were not invited to any meeting pertaining to your sons condition, but it would appear to me you would be the best person to speak with about your son.

    Get clarification from your GP as to the reasons and if you are not happy get re-referred and discuss your concerns with the pediatrician.
