Overview
Autism Diagnosis & Assessment in Houston
Housed within the Texas Medical Center at 7000 Fannin Street, the Dan L Duncan Children's Neurodevelopmental Clinic is the clinical arm of UTHealth Houston's Children's Learning Institute — an academic center where active research in child development directly shapes how clinicians practice. The team spans pediatric neuropsychologists, developmental-behavioral pediatricians, and licensed clinical social workers who collaborate on each case. English and Spanish are spoken, and the clinic sees patients from infancy through young adulthood.
Best for
Families who need a thorough, multidisciplinary evaluation — autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, learning disabilities, intellectual functioning, or neurological conditions — and want clinicians whose work is grounded in ongoing academic research.
Their approach
Rather than a single-clinician visit, assessments draw on several specialists working together, covering attention, memory, executive functions, motor skills, language, and social-emotional adjustment. CLI's own ongoing research informs how the clinical team approaches each evaluation.
What to expect
Call the Duncan Clinic directly at 713-500-8300 to schedule — central UT Physicians scheduling does not handle these appointments, and some clinicians require a referral. After the evaluation, families receive a diagnostic report, a parent feedback session, treatment recommendations, and access to follow-up consultation.
