Built around the referrals that stall

The four things we hear most often from referring pediatricians.

Waitlists for autism and ADHD evaluation

We route each referral to providers with real availability instead of adding the family to another queue.

Nothing comes back to the PCP

You receive the evaluation report and a plan summary, so the chart closes and the next well visit has context.

Finding a licensed provider nearby

Every provider is credential-verified and mapped by location, so the family is not driving three hours each way.

Care split across speech, ABA, and psych

One referral can cover evaluation and follow-on therapy, coordinated by the same team rather than four separate intakes.

Two ways to refer

Send the patient, or book with the family in the room

Both routes end at the same place: a scheduled appointment with a licensed specialist.

Option 1

Refer the patient

  1. 1

    Send the referral

    One form, no account needed.

  2. 2

    We place the family

    Matched to a provider with availability near them or by telehealth.

  3. 3

    You get the report

    Findings and next steps come back to you.

Option 2

Find care now

  1. 1

    Search with the parent

    Filter by location, specialty, and coverage.

  2. 2

    They request the appointment

    Directly with the provider, before they leave your office.

  3. 3

    Care begins

    The family keeps you in the loop through your usual follow-up.

Real families. Real results.

We had been on waitlists for months. With Aldea we had an appointment within two weeks. Getting the diagnosis changed everything for our son.

Parent of a 5-year-old, Miami FL

I didn't know where to start. Aldea made it so simple. I found a speech therapist who speaks Spanish and booked the same day.

Parent of a 3-year-old, Orlando FL

Our pediatrician recommended Aldea and it was the best thing that happened to us. We finally have answers and a real plan for our daughter.

Parent of a 7-year-old, Tampa FL

Our pediatrician referred us for an evaluation and I expected months of waiting. Through Aldea, I found a psychologist for an ADHD evaluation and later an occupational therapist, all in one place. Everything felt organised, family-friendly, and trustworthy.

Patient information stays protected

Referrals and clinical records move through channels built for protected health information, and only the treating provider sees the chart.

  • HIPAA-compliant handling

    Referral details and uploaded records are transmitted and stored under HIPAA safeguards.

  • Minimum necessary access

    Records are shared only with the matched provider and the care team working the case.

  • Signed consent on file

    Parent or guardian authorization is captured before any information moves between offices.

  • Closed-loop reporting

    Findings return to the referring physician of record, not to a general inbox.
