Recommendations for private ADHD assessment providers for an eight-year-old

I'm looking to get a private ADHD assessment for my 8yr old and looking for any recommendations. We are based in the North East but I know a lot of places offer web consultations. There are just so many when you look at google and I would rather go with somewhere that’s recommended. Any advice would be appreciated.

Morning, the first thing I would do is work out whether an online or face to face appointment would suit you and your little one better. Online isa great option for a lot of people and there is a lot to be said for reducing anxieties by doing the assessment from the comfort of your own home, and there is loads of providers so waits can be shorter. But that for some it just doesn't work and we need a clinic but these tend to have longer waits. you'll find some info here Right to Choose - ADHD UK - Your NHS options hope you get sorted soon x
