Direct answers

Start with evaluator type and concern-specific fit

The first comparison is whether the evaluator regularly handles your exact concern and age group. The wrong fit can still produce a report, but not necessarily one that helps with the next step.

The report should be useful, not just comprehensive

A good report should match the purpose of the evaluation. Ask how results are explained, what the written report includes, and whether it is commonly used for school, work, or treatment planning.

Insurance, accommodations, and follow-up should be discussed early

If you need the evaluation for insurance, school supports, workplace accommodations, or therapy planning, bring that up on the first call. It changes whether the fit is good enough.
