Neurodiversity Evaluations: ADHD and Autism Testing. Comprehensive Evaluations, Reports and Considerations for School & Professional Accommodations.
Dr. Kristine Spano, at Rittenhouse Psychiatric Associates, is now offering Neurodiversity Assessments, namely ADHD evaluations and Autism testing, for individuals 16+ who:
1. Suspect symptoms are commensurate with a neurodevelopmental issue such as Autism or ADHD
2. Need documentation via formal a test report in order to receive services and/or accommodations.
* Of note, having an examination does not mean that we will recommend accommodations.
Many of our providers at our Center City Philadelphia and Mainline locations do offer general ADHD evaluations and treatment, but often if someone is looking for services and/or accommodations a formal testing battery (offered by Dr. Spano specifically) is required. Individuals living on the main line or suburban Philadelphia, can certainly come into our Philadelphia location, for these services.
If you are seeking an evaluation for accommodations with a specific entity (a licensing board for a professional examination, a high school or university etc.) we recommend that you discuss directly with them FIRST, as we are unable to keep track of the requirements for all third-party entities. Then we recommend discussing your specific needs with our scheduling team, before making an appointment.
