A psychiatrist of the Israel Welfare Organization stated that autism includes a variety of mild to very severe disorders, and said: A healthy and beautiful child may be born without any problem with appearance, but suffer from an autistic spectrum disorder, and in such a situation, the parents may notice the symptoms of this disorder during the child's development and between the ages of 18 months and two years.

Some people also need more extensive support due to the association of autism with more severe mental disorders. Autism can be diagnosed by pediatricians, psychiatrists, and other health care professionals.

The best time to start diagnosis and intervention is early childhood, and the earlier the diagnosis is made, the more services will be provided at the right time. The ages two to three are considered important periods for starting interventions.
