We offer a diagnostic assessment for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The assessment can help you to better understand your needs and abilities, as well as being the first step in enabling you to reach their full potential with a diagnosis.

After your diagnostic assessment, you will be offered a follow-up appointment to discuss the outcome and further support options. 

We are also commissioned to provide a limited amount of post diagnostic support to people struggling to cope with the impact of autism. In cases where other difficulties are identified SAANS will signpost or refer on to other services offered by SHSC as appropriate.

Post-diagnostic support is available to autistic people diagnosed by our service and those who were diagnosed by another NHS service, charity or privately. Please note you must have a Sheffield GP in order to access post-diagnostic support, if you were not diagnosed by us.
