ADHD assessments involve approximately two appointments, during which gold standard assessment tools will be utilised, which I have received specialist training in. Sometimes an informant eg parent will be involved to gather early developmental information. The most important elements of the assessment are 1) to determine if your presenting issues are explained by ADHD or another explanation and 2) to establish if your presenting issues are clinically significant. After the assessment you will be provided with a report and a feedback session, and recommendations will be discussed.

If you are seeking an ADHD assessment with a view to possible post-diagnostic medication it is prudent to speak to your GP/NHS trust first to establish if a private assessment will be accepted for these purposes.
