ADHD private assessment (child)

[TwoVeryDifferentOnes]

Can anyone recommend a reputable private company for ADHD assessment? It's for DC aged 9.

We're 99% sure we're looking at ADHD, but the wait under NHS is sooo long. If we get a private diagnosis, how long do we then have to wait to get meds? Or, can we pay to get those upfront too?

And do these things happen online these days? If not, then somewhere near Bucks/London would be useful.

Any other advice will be gratefully listened to.

I'm near you op and had my DC assessed by adhd360.
Can't fault them.

They sent an at home bp cuff for my 6yo & a couple of forms for us. One for teacher to complete other for us
Once done and deposit placed we could choose a date for the assessment online via video call.
We waited a week! Do ask or DM if you'd like to know more.

We're going for adhd360 too. They were recommended to me by a therapist.

We used LANC U.K., the appointment was in London

We went in person to the Oxford ADHD Centre for both ADHD and autism. Waiting list was still about 8 months for assessment but once we had the diagnosis, we contacted them again re meds and had an appointment within a week.

D Nephew went to a private clinic in Milton Keynes and was seen in a few weeks. Is that near to you?
The staff he saw also worked for the NHS.

Look up right to choose EVOLVE psychology too for a nhs funded assessment too.

Our insurer uses a company called ProblemSolved for ADHD and Autism assessments. No personal experience of them but I’d hope they were reputable.
