ABOUT US

Autism Exists Diagnosis Clinic (AEDC) is a specialized practice dedicated to Adult Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) assessment and diagnosis, located in the Southcentre Executive Tower in Calgary, Alberta. Led by Dr. Gregory Skinner, one of Canada’s leading experts in adult autism, AEDC has provided compassionate, evidence-based diagnostic services for more than 12 years. Our work has helped hundreds of individuals gain clarity, validation, and access to support through timely and respectful diagnoses.
We recognize that autism assessment is a specialized field. That’s why we provide ample on-site training, mentorship, and access to comprehensive, evidence-based diagnostic tools to ensure the right Physician Assistant can step confidently into this role, even without prior autism-specific experience.
In addition, our team operates Southcentre Family Medical Clinic (SFMC), a newly established family practice in the same location. This clinic serves patients of all ages with a wide range of primary care needs.
This position will primarily (approx. 75%) focus on AEDC—supporting adult autism assessments and mental health care—while also contributing (approx. 25%) to SFMC’s family medicine services.
