Birt Neurodevelopmental Clinic

 

The clinic offers various different screening and assessment tools, in conjunction with parent interviews and a full clinical examination, to diagnose neurodevelopmental disorders. These include Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and developmental delay.

We utilize the following screening tools at our clinic:

» The Conner’s Rating Scales to assist with an ADHD diagnosis

» CARS-2 to screen for possible Autism Spectrum Disorder

I am certified in the following diagnostic tests that I utilise in my practice on a day-to-day basis:

» ADOS-2: The ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule) is the gold standard for making the diagnosis of Autism

» Griffiths III: The Griffiths Scales of Child Development is a child-friendly developmental measure from birth to 6 years of age observing a child’s development across 5 major areas of development.
