Do You Get What You Pay For?
In some circumstances, you expect to pay a premium price for a premium product. A high price can be an indicator of quality. Unfortunately, this is not the case when comparing the cost of dyslexia assessments and therapies. Some of the least qualified 'practitioners' charge high prices. (See Alternative Therapies)
