If so, are you aware that you may be able to receive a free assessment and subsequent treatment if you live in England under your Right To Choose? Please read our ‘Right To Choose‘ page for more information.
Please note we do not prioritise private patients over RTC and NHS-contract patients. The fees we charge to the NHS are the same as our private patient fees and we therefore have no grounds to treat people differently. We aim to have minimal waiting lists for assessment and treatment and we are recruiting actively to eliminate waiting lists as quickly as possible.
Our current wait time for an appointment is approximately 6 months. However, we are sometimes able to offer earlier appointments in the event of cancellations.
It is advisable to check the waiting time for your local ADHD services so that you can make an informed choice before booking an appointment.
Only our ADHD psychiatrists are able to perform ADHD assessments. If you book an alternative assessment in the hope of receiving an earlier appointment for an ADHD assessment, you will find the consultant is unable to help you when you meet. We will be unable to offer you a full refund under these circumstances.
Please accept our sincere apologies for the delays which have arisen due to the popularity of our service. We are doing everything we can to ensure that people are seen as soon as possible.
Waiting list update: We will be contacting referred patients who are waiting to be offered an appointment in the very near future. Please keep an eye on your inbox and expect a phone call from this number: 0330 124 1980. In the interest of fairness, we are contacting people in date order from the time that we received your referral.
In the majority of cases, adult clients will need a full one hour assessment, this will include your psychiatrist giving you a formal diagnosis, where indicated, with a written opinion or assessment letter and suggested treatment plan at a cost of £360.00.
As a result of your consultation there may be additional fees, including any costs for prescribing medication. This will be agreed between you and the psychiatrist at the time of assessment along with any extra time spent in the consultation if the meeting runs over one hour.
You will receive an electronic copy of your assessment letter via the patient portal which you will be able to download. A postal copy is available on request.
