Private Autism Assessments in Doncaster

NICE-Compliant Autism Diagnosis for Children & Adults

Private autism assessment in Doncaster is something we know matters — particularly when local NHS waits stretch into years. Jo Condon Autism Assessments provides NICE-compliant, face-to-face assessments for children aged 2+ and adults from our West End Clinic in New Rossington, just south of Doncaster.

We support individuals and families from across South Yorkshire — Doncaster itself, Bawtry, Tickhill, Conisbrough — and into North Lincolnshire and Bassetlaw. Local NHS adult autism assessments through Rotherham, Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust currently carry waits of well over two years for many adults, and our service is designed to offer a quicker, clearer route to a formal diagnosis.

Children, adolescents, and adults are all welcome. Every assessment includes a detailed written diagnostic report and personalised recommendations.

Experienced Autism Clinicians in Doncaster

Our Doncaster assessments are carried out by experienced, UK-registered clinicians. Every member of our team is DBS-checked, professionally regulated, and trained in the ADOS-2 and supporting diagnostic tools.

We bring a multi-disciplinary lens to every case. For families, that means we know how to navigate the picture when a child also shows ADHD traits, anxiety, sensory differences, or a complex developmental history. For adults, it means we are alert to the way autism can present subtly across the lifespan — particularly in those who have learned to mask or who have previously had their experience attributed to other causes.
