"Neurodevelopmental referral"

About: Children's Specialist Health Services / Neurodevelopmental Service (NDS)

(as a parent/guardian),

Over 2 and a half years ago my child was referred to the neurodevelopmental team for ASD/ADHD.

I expected a long wait but 2 and a half years of radio silence and struggles are taking its toll on my child's mental health.

She's reached an age of questioning why she doesn't fit in and why she has the struggles she does. Can anyone advise on a predicted time scale to be seen? Referral was back in September 2021.

Dear avocetzk47,

Thank you for your communication on Care Opinion. First of all, my names is Jacqueline Meade and I am responding to you as Team Leader for the Neurodevelopmental Service.

I am sorry to hear of your challenges and the difficulty that your child is experiencing. I would really like to assist you further, therefore if you can contact me directly with your child's name and date of birth, this would allow me to provide you with accurate information. Would it be possible for you to call me on 01698 687490.

I am available and can speak with you today.

Kind Regards
