Assessment Providers

Families seeking evaluations or related services are encouraged to research providers carefully and ask questions about qualifications, insurance coverage, areas of specialization, and referral requirements before scheduling services. The following list includes area professionals who have demonstrated experience in the diagnosis and/or treatment of dyslexia and related learning differences.

​

Because every individual and family has unique needs, WABIDA encourages families to consult with their pediatrician, school team, or medical provider and to determine which professional or service is the best fit for them.
