[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can I just say it is so crazy that we have to pay thousands for evaluations when they won't even test for autism unless you go to someone specialized in autism and/or pay extra? What is the role of the evaluator if the family has to come in already knowing what diagnosis they need? Is it really that difficult for a doctoral level professional who evaluates people for a living to administer the ADOS?[/quote] It’s crazy because they are money-making operations exploiting the desperation of parents. Just put your name on the list at Childrens, KKI and Mt Washington. School testing is also very good, contrary to beliefs here, and they’re supposed to repeat it every 3 years. We had school testing followed by Children’s testing a year later and the school report was actually more insightful. [/quote]
