Face to face appointments at our Bristol clinic
The Autism Service has been delivering autism and ADHD assessments for both children and adults since 2019.
With over 4,000 people living with autism in Bristol alone, the need for more face-to-face appointments was obvious. Having to wait months (or even years currently) for a diagnosis is stressful for both those having the assessments and their families.
Since opening our original South West clinic in Iron Acton in January 2023, we’ve been able to increase regional capacity and carry out hundreds of assessments. Currently, we’re only carrying out ASD assessments in this clinic, although these are available for both adults and children. If you require an ADHD or combined assessment, please book at the Bristol Iron Acton clinic, that offers both autism & ADHD assessments.
Our clinicians deliver fast, accurate diagnostic assessments to identify whether you or your child has ASD or ADHD.
