    This is a SCAM!!! They target vulnerable children and parents. Shame on them. If you are still going to give your children to these horrible people, then it's on you! The positive feedbacks here are all made up. Please be sensible!

    After reading through several reviews, I thought I should give
    useful information about OSILMO, which can benefit many Autistic kids & parents. Generally Autism has several set of symptoms, some of them we realized for our Son before 2 years. We have also gone through several videos in internet for possible methods and solutions. Then we came across OSILMO in internet only and we want to make an attempt to get our son normal life. BTW, we are not from Sri Lanka. It took few months before coming to Sri Lanka. We had several phone call discussions with Dr. Sinniah Thevananthan. Then doctor did Skype assessment. After that, doctor provided appointment roughly after 1 month. Doctor, madam and several therapists from OSILMO took great care of our son for 3 months. We have seen great improvements after. He is responding to his name, eye contact is good, started understanding oral instructions both Mother tongue and English, pointing objects by pointer fingers, repetitive behavior like(door closing and opening) vanished, now started speaking single or two words (full sentences will take some more time). They also did brushing & toilet training before 2 years. This is NO joke. Only parents of Autistic kids can realize the amount effort OSILMO did to get to the kids. They consider each and every aspect for the kid's development. It is really god's grace that OSILMO helped not only our Son, our whole family. Our Son is 3 years old still progressing. Even in his busy schedule, Doctor & madam are still supporting us over phone, for every phase of our son's improvement. Like mentioned by doctor in his every TV discussion or youtube video, it is really very important to accept and start doing something for the Autistic kids as early as possible for them to lead a normal life like every other human being.

    Whatever said and done,whoever has created madeup stories against the Osilmo institute,no one could ever beat it.
    Osilmo institution will guarantee a better future for autistic children .I have personally experienced and realized it.
    There is no such great place to cure autistic children other than Osilmo institution.They really dont want paid reviews.

    Im Susan Warnakulasuriya, Since 5 months, my son has been receiving treatment from Osilmo Autisum Center. During this short period of time, we have witnessed an immense improvement in my son's intellectual and social abilities.The incredible amount of Dr.Sinniah Thevananthan, Madam Anuradha and the highly trained clinical expert staff, is undoubtedly extraordinary. We,as parents who have been undergoing indescribable amounts of stress, are forever grateful for this outstanding service by this noble team.
    He is truly a living god. Most of the autistic children are rejected,considered a burden by schools but Dr.Thevanthan brings hope to the lives of these children and keeps working hard for the betterment of these kids, to the best of his abilities.
    It is a great pride for a small island nation like Sri Lanka to have an establishment of this nature,the likeness of which is not seen even in developed countries around the world.
    Therefore, this exceptional doctor has been honored with the tittle of "the Greatest Personality engaged in Silent Service." This institute is a fanatastic source of strength to parents of children with Autisum.
    Sri Lankan parents residing around the world who have children with Autisum also visit the establishment to receive in house patient care.Thereafter, the children have successfully been enrolled with receiving their education in well established schools and institutions.
    As parents of children who's been receiving treatment from this institute, with great responsibility we urge you to seek early intervention and awareness of this condition.I guarantee that, Osilmo Center will provide your child with a holistic environment integrated with love, protection ,constant prompt and proper treatment and sanitation.

    I cannot understand all those good reviews here. Either it must be written by themself or it is paid reviews. We have had a really bad experience with this team. I dont see any service from them. They are mostly interested in melking more money frm us than making progress with my daughter. I doubt if he has the right ( competence) to do that hospital there. It is really unbelieveable what i experienced with this doctor. I lost almost 10 lakhs and lot of time for nothing. You ppl are big time cheaters, trying to make money by using parents weakness. Shame on you!!!!!

    Hi I 'm Roshani Samarasinghe from Balangoda. This comment is only to motivate all the desperate parent out there.
    Osilmo is the best of all institutions that are meant for autistic children .my son has been autistic and I had gone to virtually every institution treating for condition unti I came across osilmo where I could see a positive turn in by sons behaviour . It is a heavy and massive task that they, the doctor and staff have shouldered which we must honestly and genuinely value!

    My family and I sincerely accept and truly believe that osilmo gigantic challenge alive against the notion the autism is incurable.

    Doctor, madam you are the god to me and my family, we are always believe you.

    This place is not just another institution..God lives here and doing miracles through human beings.. I have personally experienced this..I went to this place with a very heavy heart thinking about the future of my kids.now after eight months I am here rediscovered the passion of life..my children has improved tremendously..I saw few negative reviews and felt really sad about it..people have written about money and all..one thing I want to mention is that when I went through financial crisis I went and explained to Doctor and Madam. Would you believe they have reduced the charges by a great marginthey could have simply said no and opted for another kid that would pave way for them to make more money..Doctor and Madam I see them as people whom God has chosen to serve the community..I saw another negative review where a guy suggests that they give drugs that sedate children..this is utter lie..if so how the kids are speaking, thinking, writing, singing etc after being treated by them for few months..please don't just write reviews without doing a proper study or research..this institution was successful in treating kids who were rejected by so called government hospitals..be happy and proud that Sri Lanka has such an amazing institution..

    I tried with different centers and doctors for a year. All those options did not work for us. My child was a hyperactive autistic child. He was in zero level comparing to the same age children. I am not telling other doctors and centers were doing anything wrong. But that few hours treatments are not enough for an autistic child. So we could not see any progress for a year and we realized our child is going backwards than other normal children.

    But finally we met Osilmo. (Entered on 13th March 2018). Now, I am writing this comment after a year.

    After a one year, the progress is impressive. He has recovered from 0 to 90% now. We never thought we can send my child to a preschool with the same age children. But he is now. We are still having their treatments to recover the remaining 10%, twice a month or monthly. I am really happy with the Osilmo treatments and my child is a good example of the output of their treatments. We have videos before a year and now. We can see a big progress within this year. They are specialized for the treatments for autistic children. They know the subject A to Z. They never use any drugs. All their treatments are therapies and activities.

    I talked with many parents before I meet Osilmo and learned about autism. I saw the progress of the other Osilmo children. So I decided to meet them. It will be a bit difficult to get a chance. But do not give up and try if you need to see your child as a normal child.

    I met a few hatred people with Osilmo. I am not sure why. Most of them have not even met the Osilmo staff or not having the treatments. They hated based on the rumors. So I think the best option would be go and talk to them and see. You need to be patient and wait. The progress is not faster than you expect from an autistic child. You must continue the treatments for months. Otherwise, you cannot see the exact result of the treatments.

    I am happy to share my experience and our thoughts. You can ask my contact number from Osilmo. If you have a doubt, better to talk with the parents, real people and successful Osilmo parents. Do not judge based on rumors, comments reviews. Do not believe even my comment.
    --Ehipassiko – (“එව. බලව.”) – The Buddha’s word. You should go, talk and see.

    Thank you very much Doctor, Madam and the staff. We are lucky enough to have a center like Osilmo in a third world country Sri Lanka for our autistic children. Otherwise, we will be helpless. This is a great service for our children and for parents.

    May the Triple Gem Bless you all!

    Osilmo is a blessed place for autistic children
    It is a place where they believe that autism is not a lifelong disorder but a disability that can be treated and improved. They are the only people in Srilanka who challenge the autistic behaviour and bring out the hidden potential of the child.
    If u are parent I would say sending your child to Osilmo will be the best decision u ever make for your child.You will see your child as a completely different individual after the treatment and they will be open to the normal world which they did not see before.
    Doctor Sinnaiah and his wife are two very warm individuals who love the children and have dedicated their time effort and life to develop, support autistic children.
    It is a place where they develop the complete lifestyle of the child as a normal individual rather than a two or three hour class or a therapy session.Thats the only reason the child is requested to stay in the hostel . And they address all issues of the child like eating habits, interaction with peers, toilet training, sleep routines , speech and many other aspects which will develop them to be independent human beings in future.And both doctors and staff spend their whole day with the children to achieve these. That’s why their approach stands out from the rest. And no parent is forced to add their child into hostel, if u are willing u can bring the child to day school seasons only. Parents itself request for hostel places as it gives a complete transformation in changing their habits. And this is something that cannot be achieved by any drugs or medication. They make the child to think and react like a normal child which is something that cannot be achieved by drugs.if they are treating children with drugs children will not be able to think and react in a such a way.
    It is pathetic to see some comments here making false accusations just to tarnish the image of this wonderful school which has helped to change many lives of autistic children here in Srilanka and abroad.
    I would say with my experience it is a place which is blessing to the life of an autistic child and their families.
    Hope this will help a parent who is trying to give the best to their child .

    Hi, Im Dishan Selvam my son taking under treatment in Osilmo since 10 months. on this time period we have had Great improvement. I would like to thank God first to gave me a such great place to my son's treatments and I thank to Dr.Sinniah Thevananthan, Madam Anuradha and there Staff.

    Some people recommend very famous Hospital (special for children) Yes.. I went there, Do you know what happened? they said he has a mild Autistic you can't recover him and they take hearing full check up and again they said my poor son is deaf. Next day i went to another hospital to take hearing full check up they said he is normal. That's how useless previous Hospital treat my son.

    Dear parents in my knowledge and experience Osilmo is the best place i ever seen. They not torture children and they not give drugs to cool down, they doing there magnificent services. When we depressed They motivate and make us confident to make our little star to bright.

    Again i thank to Dr.Sinniah Thevananthan, Madam Anuradha and there Staff to protected my son. God Bless You.

    Hi ! I am from matugama. My unfeigned opinion is that osilmo is the best of all institutions that are meant for Autistic children. My son had been Autistic and I had gone to virtually every institution treating for the condition until I came across Oslimo where I could see a positive turn in by sons behavior. It is a heavy and massive task that they, the Doctor and the staff have shouldered which we must honestly and genuinely value!

    I strongly believe that Osilmo has not got the true recognition due to it!

    My family and I sincerely accept and truly believe that Osilmo is a gigantic challenge alive against the notion that Autism is incurable.

    Osilmo,We sincerely and whole-heartedly wish you longevity to serve our mother Lanka!!"

    If you want to send your child for treatment, it is the best place. He is not a person to advertise/promote himself . He is not a person who exploit others. He has high values in life, he is spiritually oriented person not money oriented person. He is not only helping children and also he helping others.
    In short - Don't believe him just by reviews. Just come and take his association. He will guide your children like his son/daughter, not only your children, he will also give good advice to your family. Personally, i have more experience.
    When some one is good in any field, then many people become envious and they want to spoil good reputation by unnecessary criticism. Thanks.

    It is my great pleasure with which I am writing this review - I have known Dr. Sinniah and his wonderful team for the past several years now. And to tell the truth, I have never seen a magnanimous and pleasant hospital like this one. It's actually better to call it a home than a hospital. The doctor has kindly treated many patients free of charge who are from a poor background. Most of his patients come by word of mouth, he doesn't advertise to bring new patients. Thus it is quite likely that some are bound to become jealous of his success. My short review would be that you should go to this place and see for your self, rather than beleiving the comments of few jealous people. Cheers Doctor and team, Go ahead. Hare Krishna!

    Not the best place if your child is not severely autistic. Bit expensive. And Not much support with child - parent relationship.

    This school is a rip off, and is not worth the money or the time. I left Canada just for this and I lost most of my money and I lost my house. They take 5 lax just to enroll and an additional amount for the program. Don't go, And Don't pay
