Compare private ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and dyspraxia assessment clinics across Ireland. Real prices, real wait times, verified providers. Because you shouldn't have to wait years for answers.
Over 4,000 families are on HSE waiting lists for neurodevelopmental assessments. Children wait 19–30 months. Some wait 6 years. Adults? The HSE doesn't even provide autism assessments for adults — every adult diagnosis requires a private clinic.
Meanwhile, 10% of Irish adults identify as neurodivergent, but only half have a formal diagnosis. The gap between needing answers and getting them is years wide and thousands of euros deep.
That's why we built this. One place to compare every private assessment clinic in Ireland — prices, wait times, specialties, reviews — so you can make an informed choice without the runaround.
Every major private neurodiversity assessment clinic in Ireland. Prices verified, wait times updated regularly.
