Autism assessments for adults

We offer adult assessments for autism through both the NHS Right to Choose pathway and through privately funded assessments.

How to request an assessment

You can come to us for an autism assessment through two routes - the NHS Right to Choose pathway, and the privately-funded route. We are recognised as an approved provider by NHS England through the Right to Choose route for autism assessments in adults. If you would like to be assessed through this pathway, please go to your GP and discuss the suitability of having an assessment with us at Evolve

The assessments can be done in person, online or a combination of both. Not everyone can have a solely online assessment. This can be discussed on booking. 

We also offer assessment through the privately funded route. We are accepting referrals from health insurance companies. If you would like to find out more about the costs of an assessment, and what to expect, please get in touch. Alternatively, you may wish to review our frequently asked questions section.

 I cannot thank the staff enough for their thorough and person-centred approach to assessment. The communication throughout has been brilliant and I'm very grateful that prompts were provided to the school when seeking clearer understanding of need as this helped develop a bigger picture.

We would like to pass on our thanks to you team for all the hard work they have put into assessing Katie, covering all bases, being patient with school contact and doing their best to understand Katie and unpick her needs. It has been greatly appreciated. Communication has been great from start to finish and I would fully recommend yourselves to anyone I speak to.

Parent of client

Evolve was INCREDIBLY thorough. We both agreed that we felt that our clinicians were very 'switched on' & actually listened to our concerns as parents.
