Getting an Autism Diagnosis in Rochester

If you suspect autism, you do not have to wait for a formal diagnosis to start getting help. In Rochester you can pursue an evaluation while also tapping into supports that require no diagnosis at all.

Rochester has a real advantage: Mayo Clinic's developmental-behavioral pediatrics is here. But demand is high everywhere, so expect a wait - several months, sometimes closer to a year - and plan around it.

This page covers who does autism assessments in Rochester, what an evaluation involves, and how Minnesota's systems fit together.
