Guest guest Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hi Aileen I have some contacts in Australia who should know what is the best way to go about obtaining a referral for a diagnosis. Is your friend based in Sydney? I might be able to get you city specific info/recommendation if it is Sydney - will wait for you to confirm before I pass the message on.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I am replying to myself.........(first sign of madness LOL) Aileen it was clear when I re-read your message that your friend is based in Sydney so I have got in touch with my Oz contacts asking if anyone can recommend what steps to take, which professional/s to see plus if there are parents in Sydney who have been through the diagnostic process (or the 'just checking it out' process) who would pass their contact details on to your friend. Contact with local parents would be a good place to start imho (it's where most of my best advice has come from!) - will get back to you as soon as I hear anything.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hi Aileen Sorry - I forgot to put spaces into the address so it would show up. It is: rochelle . appleby @ autismintervention . com.au and just now I have had another person (Cheryl) contact me offering to put you in touch with her friend who is a Paediatrician involved in autism diagnosis in Sydney so you can pass details on. Cheryl says to contact her at this address: ECFSpeech @ aol.com and she will put you in touch with her Paed friend. Cheers Zoe > > > > > > > > > > Hi Is there anyone on here from Australia/Sydney or know of > > > > anyone/good > > > > > contacts.
