Your local autism assessment options in Leicester
In Leicester, autism in adults is recognised late in many communities, and it is recognised later still in women and in anyone who learned to mask early — the screening instruments themselves were validated largely on men. The NHS route is slow regardless: adult autism assessment is separately commissioned from ADHD and commonly involves waits of years. A private assessment removes the referral step, which is often where a late-recognised adult gets stuck.
