A is for Apple: Autism Therapy for Children, Help for Families

The A is for Apple website was not PlanetMagpie’s first healthcare company website to build, but it was the largest. A is for Apple provides multiple therapies to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or related developmental disorders.

The website underwent a complete rebuild. Audience research determined what A is for Apple’s customers really needed from their website, requiring all-new content. PlanetMagpie also designed a brand-new site layout meant for ease of use on any device.

“This is one of the most finely-detailed websites we’ve ever built,” said Doreyne Douglas, Vice President of PlanetMagpie. “Every page, every topic covered, it’s all done to give parents of children with autism the help they need.”
