At Jo Condon Autism Assessments, we believe that children and adults should be able to access timely, professional autism assessments by highly skilled and experienced clinicians. Our expert multi-disciplinary specialist team offer fast, professional assessments from the age of 24 months.
We provide NICE compliant assessments using internationally recognised neurodivergence/autism assessment tools.
Our assessments meet the standards required by public bodies such as the NHS
Will a private diagnosis be recognised? Yes - Our Assessments are recognised by public bodies such as education settings, social care and the NHS.
The cost of a private autism assessment with Jo Condon is not covered by the NHS, and therefore the family or individual commissioning the assessment are responsible for funding the assessment. Unlike the NHS, you can self-refer for an autism assessment with our team (or in the case of a child under the age of 18, a parent or person with parental rights can refer).
An autism assessment with Jo Condon follows the gold-standard process. The National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) provides guidelines for autism assessments which are evidence-based best practice guidelines that apply to England and Wales.
Our assessment is NICE compliant, and our multi-disciplinary team use internationally recognised autism assessment tools.

Founded by Chris Wade, Consultant Speech and Language Therapist with 19 years' experience in NHS and private diagnostic teams, we provide private Autism, ADHD and combined diagnostic assessments for children, adolescents and adults.
Our assessments follow NICE guidelines, and since February 2024 we've been commissioned by Powys NHS Integrated Autism Services to deliver Autism and ADHD diagnostic assessments in partnership with the NHS.
We also offer a free document screening of any existing reports or history, so we can advise honestly on whether a full assessment is likely to be appropriate.
Our pathway is a multidisciplinary team (MDT) assessment: one clinician carries out the ADOS-2 / QB Test, a separate clinician conducts the ADI-R / Young Diva / Diva, and questionnaires are gathered independently.
All three clinicians then meet as a full MDT to reach a consensus diagnosis. Each team includes at least one Clinical Psychologist. Where required a school observation can be conducted at no extra cost.
After your feedback meeting, to discuss the outcome of your assessment, we also include a follow-up meeting as standard, at no extra cost - a school meeting to discuss the practical implications of a diagnosis for a child, or a workplace meeting to discuss reasonable adjustments for an adult.
Private Autism Diagnostic Assessment: £2,250
Private ADHD Diagnostic Assessment: £1,600
Private Combined Autism and ADHD Diagnostic Assessment: £2,850
Spread all our assessments over 3 or 6 equal monthly payments.
We also apply a 15% discount if more than one family member is referred for an assessment.
We don't need a GP or NHS referral — you (or, for a child, a parent/person with parental responsibility) can self-refer directly, in complete confidence.
