Since the Eides are the gifted dyslexic gurus, I'd be inclined to wait for the them. We have not gone ourselves but have a good family friend who had their 2e, PG son test with them. The family had an excellent experience with the Eides.
My DD fits the Eides' description of a stealth dyslexic to a tee. We have gone through less expert testing locally. The results have been mixed. We have received reports with differing interpretations of DD's challenges -- one clearly stating that DD is a gifted dyslexic, another that reflected that the testing center didn't know what to make of her. BTW, the former recommended the subsequent testing with the latter. The latter freely admitted that DD did not meet the typical profile that they saw in their center. We have not pursued any further testing because we were able to get DD a 504 plan after a fair amount of arm twisting with the results that we had. We may need to look at again as we move to middle school.
