Assessment & Diagnosis
Our pediatric FASD diagnosis clinic is based in High River and is available for pediatric patients who can be referred either by themselves or by their healthcare providers. At our clinic, we use a comprehensive approach that follows the FASD Canadian Guidelines for Diagnosis and encompasses the assessment of 10 brain domains to accurately diagnose Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).
Our team of experienced professionals is committed to providing thorough evaluations in a comfortable and supportive environment. Whether patients self-refer or are referred by their doctors, we aim to offer individualized care that addresses the specific needs and challenges associated with FASD.
If you believe that your child or your patient may benefit from our clinic’s services, please reach out to us for further information or to initiate the referral process.
We are here.

“The FFAS clinic was a great clinic. All the therapists and staff were so great and kind. We now understand how my son’s brain works and how we can help him.”
