Self-referral

Bedfordshire, Luton & Milton Keynes Adult Autism Diagnostic Service

We provide autism assessments for adults (18+ years) who have a registered GP in Bedfordshire, Luton or Milton Keynes. 

Our service has been co-designed and produced with autistic people and we work in a neurodiversity affirming way. This means we will not use deficit-based language when we communicate with you.

For more information about our service and how to refer please see sections further down on this page.

Important information: 

  • We are not able to provide urgent or crisis support.If you need urgent support with your mental health, click the red "I need help now" link at the top of this page.

  • The best way to contact us is by email, as there is not always someone available to answer phone calls.

  • If you prefer to call us and there is no answer, please leave a voicemail message and we will call you back as soon as we can.
