I strongly suspect that my 11 year old son has some form of dyslexia. He does not show some of the obvious symptoms, but many of the other symptoms. For instance, he scores well in reading comprehension, and has no reversals, yet he has spelling difficulties, struggles with organization, and leaves out words when reading orally etc. My husband and I want to find testing for him from a true expert, someone who is familiar with less typical cases. We do not feel confident in the testing available in our area, but are willing to travel. We'll go wherever we need to for a really excellent diagnostician. Does anyone feel very strongly about the facility or person who tested your child? Is there a ranking system? Obviously we would research any suggestions before committing, so don't be shy about speaking up. All suggestions welcome!

Thank you :)
