Diagnosing ASD

Description

Together with Dr. Featherston we will review diagnostic criteria for ASD and what diagnoses need to be ruled out. She will discuss what assessments are conducted to reach a diagnosis and what assessments may be available to us in the future. Updates on genetic testing and research will be shared. Lastly, she will talk about assessing a parent’s readiness/understanding of their child’s diagnosis.
