Testimonials
Aisling was the first person we encountered and she was extremely helpful and explained all of the steps along the assessment journey really well. The pre screen video conference call was really good and it gave me an opportunity to meet the psychologist my son was going to meet in advance. Communication was really good throughout the process and the turnaround time for confirmation of the appointment was very efficient.

I wholeheartedly recommend Autism Assessment Centre. My daughter was put at ease which put me at ease. Autism Assessment Centre have a unique blend of professionalism and kindness.
Mary
I found the service through a Google search and it was within Cork city which was perfect location wise. The communication was very efficient and personal, the process was rapid considering the waiting times a lot of parents can experience. Mary was exceptional in explaining the findings in a detailed call and was available for follow-up if I required any further explanations.

I found this Autism assessment service on Google.
Outstanding autism detection experience! The assessment was comprehensive and delivered with great sensitivity. The platform’s user-friendly design made it accessible, and the results were provided promptly. A valuable tool for early detection and support. Highly recommend!

I heard about the services via researching on the internet. I would recommend the centre – communication was good and there was always a reply in a timely fashion. We felt both supported and informed and any questions that arose were answered. Recommendations: if any questions were raised with the report, I think the best advice to give possibly is to arrange a call directly with the psychologist rather than there being a third person involved! It’s easier to explain things directly with the psychologist as they will have already met the child concerned. It was a very positive experience hopefully our son will flourish from here with the right supports in school.

Rebecca has coordinated everything with me for my daughter. I just really wanted to give her the best praise possible for how helpful and kind she has been throughout the process.
For myself as an autistic person too, I found her extremely patient, approachable and kind. She very much put me at ease as processing lots of info like this can be tough for me.
She gave me plenty of time to talk on the calls, explained each part of the process clearly and it was very clear for me how each stage will progress.
She’s really a credit to your team.

The Autism Assessment Centre provided invaluable support during a difficult time. The idea of submitting our child to a clinical assessment for ASD was daunting, but the compassion and empathy that was in abundance in every phone conversation and email made it much easier to face.
The service staff and clinical staff alike were all brilliant, and ensured that our child’s assessment experience was smooth and dignified. The team continued to help us understand how we move forward from the diagnosis to get our child the right support.

I heard about the Autism Assessment Center from my sister who works as a civilian with the Gardaí.
The communication with the whole team was excellent. I felt very much well supported and the conversation I had about my daughter with the clinical psychologist was unbelievable the detail she delved into.
Thank you team for all your help and I would recommend you to other parents.

I found the website online through many searches, mostly focusing on making sure that they could be recognised by the HSE should we receive a positive diagnosis. Overall the process was really easy for me. The team ensured I understood each step and what was next and the timeline around it. It was extremely helpful. The actual team who diagnosed my daughter on the day were also lovely and guided us. On the day, they made my daughter feel comfortable and again we’re clear and upfront about timelines and rationale behind some questions. Overall I couldn’t recommend them more, it made this journey a lot easier for me and my family.

I heard about the Autism Assessment Centre from a friend who had come across the service. I immediately contacted them and they replied within 24 hours. They explained everything to me and advised that the waiting time was approximately 10 to 12 weeks. Once we got our appointment for the assessment, all the forms and documentation were sent to me immediately.
The client form, although very detailed, was also very straight forward and easy to fill out. On the day of the assessment, both assessors that were present were very friendly and approachable. They explained everything to my son and made him feel very at ease. The Assessment Centre contacted us by phone and went through the report and explained the findings. We then received the full report via email and, again, it was very detailed but easy to read and easy to understand. All in all, I would highly recommend the Autism Assessment Centre for their professionalism, their work ethic and the clarity in which they communicate their findings.
