What is Autism

​

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition that presents with differences in how people perceive the world around them, how they perceive emotions in themselves and in others and how they interact with others. At Templepatrick Paediatric Clinic we consider Autism as a different style of thinking involving  positive attributes which have enriched the lives of many in society. We passionately support the concept of Neurodiversity in humans and consider both Autism and ADHD as a variation of human behaviour.  Different but not less.

​

Autism is a spectrum condition which means while people on the spectrum share similar core difficulties they can also have significant differences- some people with Autism are incredibly bright and academically very able and others may have learning difficulties ranging from profound to mild. We aim at clinic to support children and families in a compassionate way to meet their full potential. Our Paediatricians have long standing experience within the NHS  in assessing child development and neurodevelopmental disorders.
