A Physician-Led Autism Evaluation Option for Families Facing Long Waits

When a child needs closer developmental evaluation, families often need more than another referral list. They need a credible place to go, especially when local autism evaluation options are booked far beyond the point where parents feel comfortable waiting.

Traditional autism diagnosis wait times can range from 6 to 18 months. Entry Point Health Services offers physician-led telehealth autism diagnosis for children in the states we serve, including families in Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William counties in Virginia. With us, families can get a diagnostic evaluation in weeks instead of months, all from home.

  • When Evaluation Access Slows Families Down

    You might see the need for autism diagnostic services from different perspectives. As a pediatrician, you might hear parents' concerns after a screening. As a physician, autism might be just one part of a bigger developmental picture. If you're an educator or childcare provider, you could notice patterns during transitions, play, group routines, or peer interaction.

    When families can't get a timely evaluation, therapy planning, early intervention, school support, and care coordination can all slow down. A completed diagnostic evaluation gives them information they can bring back to you and the other professionals already helping their child, so that future conversations are based on clinical documentation rather than scattered notes or online searches.

  • A Comprehensive, Physician-Led Diagnostic Evaluation

    Entry Point Health Services uses a structured telehealth process for comprehensive autism evaluation. Our comprehensive, physician-led evaluation includes developmental history, structured behavioral assessment, physician review, diagnostic determination, and written recommendations. Families share background on their child's development, history, routines, and current concerns.

    A Board Certified Behavior Analyst or Licensed Behavior Analyst gathers developmental and behavioral information during the process. A licensed physician reviews the clinical information and makes the diagnosis. The BCBA or LBA supports structured data collection, while the physician is responsible for the diagnostic decision.

  • Documentation Families Can Use After the Evaluation

    EPHS was built by clinical and healthcare operations leaders, including co-founder Lauren Marra, M.S.Ed, L-BCBA, whose background includes more than two decades of clinical program development and work supporting thousands of children and families.

    After the evaluation, families receive a report and recommendations they can use in therapy, early intervention, school, and care planning conversations. For practitioners, this documentation helps make follow-up conversations more focused because parents aren't relying only on memory, internet searches, or informal observations.

    Entry Point Health Services isn't a replacement for pediatric care, neurological care, therapy, or school-based support; it's a physician-led virtual autism evaluation option for families who need diagnostic clarity and a practical way to move forward.

    When families you serve are stuck on long waitlists, Entry Point Health Services gives them a structured autism evaluation path they can start from home.
