Sources for Dyslexia Testing

Family Practitioners can suggest a Neuropsychologist that does testing within insurance coverage.

To have a child formally assessed for dyslexia, a battery of tests are conducted, usually by a psychologist or neuropsychologist. Typically, assessments to diagnose dyslexia are done between 7 and 10 years old. Schools may do assessments to determine a learning disability but do not make diagnoses. Often families may request a referral from their child's pediatrician. It is recommended that parents check with their insurance company as the assessment is not always covered and can be somewhat costly. Private clinicans are another source to explore.

A referral from a primary care physician may be required before beginning assessment.
