Private Assessments. Real Results.
A clear, more human next step for people wondering whether ADHD may be affecting everyday life.
Understanding before labels
You don’t need to have all the answers.
Many people begin with questions, not certainty. A specialist assessment considers experiences over time and the wider picture – not simply a checklist.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can book an appointment from seven days after you register. That gives you time to complete the pre-assessment questionnaires before you meet your consultant: one about you, and one for someone who knows you well, as well as gathering any relevant information ahead of your assessment.
Your assessment with a consultant psychiatrist usually takes between 60 and 90 minutes.
You’ll have a full clinical assessment with a consultant psychiatrist. They’ll talk with you about your experiences, both now and growing up, and take into account the questionnaires you completed beforehand.
As part of your assessment, we’ll also ask you to complete QbCheck. This is a computerised test that takes around 15 minutes and looks at attention, impulsivity and activity levels, including how much you move during the test. It gives your consultant objective information to consider alongside everything else.
You’ll receive a full written report, whatever the outcome.
If you’re diagnosed with ADHD, your consultant will talk you through your treatment options, which may include medication and non-medication approaches.
If your assessment doesn’t lead to an ADHD diagnosis, your report will still explain your consultant’s findings, and we’ll point you towards other support that may help.
Your GP can add your diagnosis to your medical records. However, GPs can’t automatically take over prescribing ADHD medication that was started privately. This is only possible if your GP practice agrees to a formal Shared Care Agreement.
Some GP practices choose not to enter shared care. If that happens, you’d need to continue paying privately for your medication and ongoing reviews.
Most employers accept a diagnosis from a consultant psychiatrist, and you can use your report to support a request for reasonable adjustments at work. You don’t have to share your diagnosis with your employer if you’d rather not.
Our pricing is simple. Our comprehensive, consultant-led assessment costs £990 which includes a QbCheck. Head to our Pricing page for full details on what is included. Treatment, if required, is priced separately.
