How long does an ADHD assessment take?
ADHD assessments are completed over a structured clinical appointment, typically lasting 2 – 2.5 hours.
Is this service private?
Yes, ADHD & Clinical Services is a private service, allowing timely access without extended waiting times.
How quickly can I be seen?
Availability varies, but I aim to offer appointments as soon as possible. Please get in touch to discuss current availability.
Do you prescribe ADHD medication?
Yes. ADHD & Clinical Services Ltd can provide private ADHD prescribing following appropriate clinical assessment or review and where medication is clinically appropriate. Medication may include initiation, titration and ongoing prescribing depending upon individual circumstances.
Will my GP be involved?
With your consent, relevant clinical information can be shared with your GP. Once medication is stable, shared care may be requested where appropriate. However, shared-care arrangements are voluntary and acceptance is a decision for the individual GP/practice, so this cannot be guaranteed.
What happens after an ADHD diagnosis?
Following diagnosis, we will discuss the outcome and appropriate next steps with you. Depending upon your individual needs, these may include medication, ADHD coaching and psychological support, practical recommendations or liaison with other healthcare professionals.
Do you offer ongoing support?
Yes — I offer follow-up reviews, medication management, and ADHD coaching and psychological support.
Is this service for adults only?
Yes, this service is for individuals aged 18 and over.
Is this an emergency service?
No. If you require urgent support, please contact your GP, NHS 111, or attend A&E.
Can I use private health insurance?
Please check directly with your insurance provider, as coverage can vary depending on your policy and provider.
Some insurers may contribute towards ADHD assessments or follow-up appointments, while others may not currently cover ADHD-related services.
If required, I can provide invoices or supporting documentation for you to submit to your insurance company.
If you are unsure, feel free to get in touch and I will do my best to help guide you.
What if I already have an ADHD diagnosis from another provider?
We may be able to help if you already have an ADHD diagnosis and are seeking medication treatment or ongoing prescribing.
We will first ask you to provide your original diagnostic assessment/report and relevant clinical information. A brief initial suitability check of this documentation is undertaken at no charge.
If the information appears sufficient for us to proceed, you can then book an External ADHD Diagnosis & Treatment Review (£195), which includes a detailed clinical review of your records and an individual consultation.
Acceptance of an existing diagnosis and/or prescribing cannot be guaranteed and will depend upon individual clinical assessment and the information available.
What if I have a concern or complaint?
We want you to feel comfortable raising any concerns about your care or experience with ADHD & Clinical Services Ltd. Wherever possible, we will aim to resolve concerns promptly and openly.
If you would like to make a formal complaint, details of how to do this can be found in our Complaints Policy.
Complaints will be handled fairly and confidentially in accordance with our complaints procedure, and raising a concern or complaint will not adversely affect the care or service you receive.
