Autism Evaluation in Sandy, Utah

Serving Sandy families from our Taylorsville Center — voted #1 in Utah for 6 years running.

6× Best Behavioral/Mental Health Treatment in Southern + Northern Utah · Voted #1 in Utah 6 years running · CASP 2026 Platinum Sponsor

If you suspect your child may be on the autism spectrum, a timely, thorough evaluation is the gateway to services, school supports, and insurance-funded therapy. Bridgeway provides comprehensive autism diagnostic evaluations for families in Sandy, Utah using gold-standard tools administered by licensed clinicians.

Referred by your pediatrician but stuck on a hospital waitlist? Many Sandy, Utah families are sent to university or hospital assessment clinics where waits commonly stretch from many months to over a year. Bridgeway offers private, comprehensive autism evaluations without the year-long hospital wait — the same validated tools, a report schools and insurers accept, and answers while the early intervention window is still open.

Unlike standalone testing practices, Bridgeway can move your family directly from diagnosis into ABA therapy, counseling, and medical supports within the same organization — so a diagnosis in Salt Lake County becomes a treatment plan, not another waitlist.

Sandy families reach our Taylorsville Center against traffic — often faster than clinics on the east bench.

Families here are served by Canyons School District. Canyons District families in Sandy, Draper, Midvale, and Cottonwood Heights reach Bridgeway's Taylorsville Center against traffic on I-215 or Bangerter. At a parent's request, Bridgeway clinicians coordinate with school teams on IEP and 504 supports — Bridgeway is an independent provider and is not affiliated with any school district.

The closest Bridgeway location is the Taylorsville Center, 5536 S 1900 W, Taylorsville, UT 84129 — about 15 minutes from Sandy via I-15 or Bangerter Highway, open Monday to Friday 9:00am - 7:00pm.

With two clinics in the valley — Taylorsville and our Redwood Road center — Bridgeway covers Salt Lake County from Herriman to the Avenues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer autism evaluation and diagnostic testing in Sandy?

Yes. Sandy families work with Bridgeway's Taylorsville Center — about 15 minutes from Sandy via I-15 or Bangerter Highway. The address is 5536 S 1900 W, Taylorsville, UT 84129; call (801) 255-5131 ext. 6. Serving Salt Lake County & parts of Davis County.

We were referred to a hospital clinic and told to wait — can Bridgeway evaluate my child instead?

Yes. Waits at Utah's university and hospital assessment clinics are commonly reported at many months to over a year. A hospital referral is a recommendation, not a requirement — Bridgeway's licensed clinicians provide private, comprehensive evaluations for Sandy, Utah families using the same validated instruments, typically on a much shorter timeline, and we send results back to your pediatrician.

Can autism evaluation and diagnostic testing in Sandy be scheduled around the school day?

The Taylorsville Center is open Monday to Friday 9:00am - 7:00pm, so appointment times after the school day are possible — availability changes week to week, so ask our intake team what is open when you call (801) 255-5131 ext. 6. At a parent's request, Bridgeway clinicians also coordinate with school teams.

Can we get autism evaluation and diagnostic testing without driving to the clinic from Sandy?

The testing appointment itself happens at the Taylorsville Center, 5536 S 1900 W, Taylorsville, UT 84129. Ask our intake team which parts of the process — intake paperwork, caregiver and teacher rating scales, the feedback session — can be handled without a second trip.

Do you serve the towns around Sandy as well?

Yes — the Taylorsville Center is the nearest Bridgeway center for West Valley City, West Jordan, and Murray too. Serving Salt Lake County & parts of Davis County. In-home coverage depends on current staffing, so tell our intake team your city and they will confirm what is available there.

Do you take insurance for autism evaluation and diagnostic testing in Sandy, Utah?

Bridgeway works with most major insurance plans in Utah, including Medicaid options. Our intake team verifies your specific benefits for autism evaluation and diagnostic testing before your first appointment, at no cost.

How soon can my child start autism evaluation and diagnostic testing?

Timelines vary with staffing and insurance authorization, but because evaluation, therapy, and psychiatry are all under one roof at Bridgeway, families in Salt Lake County typically move from first call to services faster than when coordinating multiple separate providers.

Why do families in Salt Lake County choose Bridgeway?

Bridgeway has been voted #1 in Utah for our services for 6 consecutive years and in 2026 won “Best Behavioral/Mental Health Treatment in Southern + Northern Utah” for the 6th time. We're also a Platinum Sponsor of CASP 2026 — and the only integrated provider in the area combining ABA, mental health, evaluations, and psychiatry in one team.
