My son (17, year 13) went to the go for a referral to be tested for autism, (specifically pda he thinks), the gp agreed that the symptoms could be caused by hfa/pda, and said that she would refer him to a pediatician to be tested.
Fast forward about a month and he still hasn't received a letter with an appointment date, I assumed that there would probably be a long wait for an appointment, it was the same deal with camhs a few ago, but I thought that we would have gotten a date by now.
Is this normal to have no further communication after referral for a month?
How can I check on the status of the referral? I would book another go appointment but that could take 2 weeks and would waste the gp's time to book an appointment just to ask for a status update.
