How It Works

Early diagnosis matters, yet long waitlists delay answers.

As You Are offers fast, research-backed virtual autism

evaluations from home.

Is a virtual autism evaluation right
for your family?

Early in life, your child’s brain is especially ready to learn—making early

diagnosis important. Unfortunately, traditional evaluations can take months or even years, and pandemic-related delays have made wait times even longer.

As You Are offers answers in weeks. Our physicians are specially trained to

conduct virtual autism evaluations using evidence-based tools and assessments.

 

The process includes three virtual video appointments from the comfort of your home:

 

  • a clinical interview,
  • a standardized behavioral observation, and
  • a results visit.

Additional appointments may be recommended based on your child’s needs.

Provide your child's health information

Prepare for your visit

First things first — please make sure you have completed and submitted all of your paperwork prior to your appointment. Forget where they are? Double check your email. The forms will come from "As You Are."

Attend your appointment

It's time for your appointments! Your child will have three individual virtual appointments with the physician. Our team is here for you along this journey.

Preparation Checklist

We want every child to receive timely, appropriate care. However, As You Are’s virtual

autism evaluation may not be the best fit in all situations. If your child experiences any

of the following, we recommend an in-person evaluation instead.

  • Use a device with video and audio (a tablet, laptop, or desktop is best).
  • An item your child needs help opening (such as a cookie jar, bubble jar, or plastic container)
  • A few simple toys you already own (ball, toy cars, doll, stuffed animals, puzzles, bubbles, etc.)
  • Set up in a quiet, enclosed space with minimal distractions, and make sure the camera isn’t facing a window.
