Autism Program Initial Consultation Booking Page

The Australian Centre for Genomic Analysis is a specialised centre that focuses on the treatment of Autism, Gut concerns and other areas of Health & Wellness.

Using a combination of DNA analysis, healing the digestive system and nutrition we are able to assist many people on their journey.

Nutrigenomics and Microbiome sequencing are shaping the future of health-care. Personalised DNA testing gets to the root cause of your health issues. Bio-individualised interventions means no more guesswork. It’s not about having more genes, rather it’s about clear interpretation of the relevant genes. All our practitioners are hand-picked, well qualified experts who will help you get the most out of your DNA test results. Be empowered, make informed choices and take positive action that can literally change your future.

If you have not already seen it, we invite you to visit our website where Dr Heather has recorded a 5-minute video to give you more information about what is included in our Autism program.

We invite you to schedule an initial appointment with one of our highly qualified specialist nutrigenomists to explore the potential of our ASD program for your child. We will do a deep dive into what our one-of-a-kind Autism /ADHD program developed by Autism researcher Dr Heather Way, can offer your family.  We will listen carefully to your goals and your child’s symptoms, gain an understanding of their unique needs, and explain all the relevant tests and strategies. Based on our clinical review we can then put together a personalised package with the recommended specialist neurodevelopmental tests required to help your child reach their full potential.

An ASD program package is personalised for your child.

The cost includes all required testing, between 9 – 12 consultations depending what the child requires and full support for 12 – 18 months.

Supplements are an additional cost as we do not know what your child will need until we get the DNA results back.

Here’s what is included:

  1. Proprietary Specialist Neuro-developmental genomics testing involving a panel of 700 autism/ADHD associated genes developed by Dr Way, to find out which genes are affecting your child and what the best approach to restore health
  2. Proprietary Full specialist Autism gut microbiome sequencing test developed by Dr Way. There is a well researched gut-brain connection that link the flora of the microbiome to Autism/ADHD symptoms. This test will tell us what we need to do to repair the child’s microbiome.
  3. Organic acids urine testing – to get a snapshot on what is happening in the body at that moment in terms of gene expression.
  4. Proprietary GcMAF protocol Developed by Dr Way to stimulate neuroregeneration, support the immune system and improve speech.
  5. “Fussy Eating Protocol” ebook developed by Dr HeatherWay consolidating years of autism ADHD research
  6. Fully individualised and tailor-made online nutrition planner to make meal times MUCH easier.
  7. Email support as needed between appointments.
  8. Access to fermentation videos for gut healing presented by Dr Heather Way
  9. Access to our exclusive Private Patients Facebook group, only available to families on the program. This provides lots of additional resources, recipe ideas, latest ASD research and developments and a wonderful parent support network.
  10. The program includes 9 – 12 Zoom consultations with your fully trained nutrigenomic practitioner over 112-18 months depending on the child’s needs.

The program may be expanded to include mould illness treatment and PANS/PANDAS treatment if required.

We may be able to use some of your recent testing from within the last 6 months. eg if you have a recent OAT test from another practitioner, we can adapt the package to remove that test kit and thus reduce the price of the package.

Our full support 12-18 month Packages are flexible to meet the children’s needs and range from approximately $8000 – $9700 all inclusive, depending on the child’s requirements. We also offer packages with a payment plan option which your practitioner will discuss with you.

While there is no Medicare rebate applicable, you may claim with your private health – however this depends on your personal level of cover. NDIS funding may be able to be used for the consultation component of our ASD packages. We can support you in writing your goals for self-managed plans and provide the relevant item numbers.

Your investment for an Initial Appointment to determine what is the best plan of action for your child is $330. This consists of 1 hour face to face on Zoom. The practitioner will then create a personalised package and quote which will be emailed to you.
