Advice on ADHD Right to Choose providers

4 replies

Thepeopleversuswork · 13/03/2025 20:35

My DD (14) has suspected ADHD according to a private assessor. I'm trying to get an NHS diagnosis and the GP has just recommended we select a provider from the list of providers on their website via the ADHD Right to Choose list.

I've just been onto the website and it's a bit daunting. Does anyone have any recommendations or anti-recommendations as to which providers are good? Not all of them are open to referrals in my area but any suggestions welcome.

My gp refered me to these https://psychiatry-uk.com for an asd assessment. They do children/adhd too, and assessment is recognised by NHS (so should be recognised by education too).
The assessment felt thorough and had regular communication via a secure portal. It was 13 months from referral to diagnosis.
My dc had there assessments through a local NHS service and was a nightmare from beginning to end. I wish I'd known about psychiatry-uk at the time.

Thank you!

This one isn't showing up on the portal which my GP has sent to me: I will have to ask her.

I went through adhd 360 and had a positive experience. I got medication within a week and the guy was really understanding assuring and informative. Iv had a few questions this week around medication and they have a team that give you advice and support. During my assessment I learnt a lot about adhd too

Psychiatry UK as mentioned above was the one my gp refered me to. Was 4 weeks from contacting the gp to assessment and diagnosis same day.
