Conclusion: This study is the first study to evaluate the diagnosis delay in patients with FRDA in our country. Although FRDA was the most common hereditary ataxia, in our study, it was shown that there was a significant delay in diagnosis in patients with FRDA. There is a need for studies that will raise awareness of public and health professionals about FRDA.
