The most consistent concern across multiple reviews is that assessments have resulted in missed or incorrect diagnoses, with several parents and individuals reporting that autism was not identified here but was subsequently confirmed elsewhere, with reviewers citing rushed assessments, inadequate consideration of masking, and reports containing contradictions.

A smaller number of reviewers report positive experiences, particularly with early intervention services and adult support programs, with staff described as caring and professional in those cases.
