Our son is 10 and had ADHD & ASD. Our first appt for an EEG fir him was disastrous even though we rang ahead and forewarned reception of his difficulties and anxieties etc, staff obviously had little knowledge and training of ASD and the whole thing was handled incorrectly resulting in our son having a severe meltdown and panic.
Our second appt for the EEG was handled so much better as we weren't made to wait and the member of staff who did it, knew how to speak to Joshua etc making the whole experience more bearable for him.
