Autism Diagnosis in Iowa City, Iowa

For a large share of Iowa families, an autism evaluation means a trip to Iowa City. The University of Iowa Stead Family Children's Hospital and its Center for Disabilities and Development make this the state's diagnostic hub. That's a real strength - deep, multidisciplinary expertise in one place - paired with a real drawback: demand is high and waits can be long.
