How long it takes
Two to three weeks from booking to the written report, covering all four stages. Same-day diagnosis is available in urgent cases.

Consultant psychiatrist-led, using standardised diagnostic measures and the QbCheck objective test. You get a written report that NHS GPs, local authorities and schools accept. Assessments run by video or in person at Beaumont Street, if you would rather be seen face to face.
In England, you have a legal right to choose your provider for an NHS-funded ADHD assessment. It is called Right to Choose; it needs a referral from your GP, and it costs you nothing.
Waits vary enormously by provider and by area, and in some cases they are now long enough that people choose to pay. But it is worth asking your GP about it before spending £950, and we would rather tell you than have you find out afterwards.
People generally choose to pay when the wait where they live is measured in years, when a diagnosis is needed for a deadline such as exams, workplace adjustments or a DSA application, or when they have already been waiting and want it resolved.

Two to three weeks from booking to the written report, covering all four stages. Same-day diagnosis is available in urgent cases.
Most of the assessment is designed to be conducted by video call, including the QbCheck. That means you can be assessed from anywhere. If you would rather be seen face-to-face, Beaumont Street is available.
Adults and adolescents from £950. Children from £1,295, which reflects the additional work involving parents, carers and school input.
Pre-assessment questionnaires: Completed before your first appointment, covering symptoms across your life rather than only now.
Screening consultation: Thirty to forty-five minutes with a clinical psychiatrist, by video call.
Full diagnostic assessment: One and a half to two hours, using standardised measures and a clinical interview, with the QbCheck computer-based test available alongside it.
Feedback and written report: Results discussed in a follow-up appointment, with a full diagnostic report and recommendations.
An assessment does not guarantee a diagnosis. A thorough one sometimes concludes that something else fits better, and that is a useful outcome rather than a wasted fee.


Medication: Our consultant psychiatrists can prescribe ADHD medication after a confirmed diagnosis, with titration appointments to find the right dose and review appointments to monitor how it is working.
Shared care: If your GP agrees to a shared care agreement, ongoing prescriptions can transfer to NHS care, which reduces the long-term cost considerably. GPs are not obliged to agree, and practice varies by area, so this is worth asking your own GP about early.
Without medication: Cognitive behavioural therapy, ADHD coaching and practical strategies are all options, and for some people they are the preferred route rather than a fallback.
Your report: Written to be accepted by NHS GPs, local health authorities, schools and universities, which matters if you need it for workplace adjustments, exam arrangements or a Disabled Students’ Allowance application.
No GP referral is needed to be seen privately.

Possibly. In England, Right to Choose lets you pick your provider for an NHS-funded assessment at no cost, with a GP referral. Waits vary a great deal by provider and area. Ask your GP before paying privately.
No. Most of it is designed to run via video, including the QbCheck test. Beaumont Street, is available if you would rather be seen in person.
Our consultant psychiatrists can prescribe following a confirmed diagnosis, with titration and review appointments.
A computer-based test that measures attention, impulsivity and activity objectively, used alongside the clinical interview rather than instead of it.
Yes, from £1,295, which includes parent and school input
Two to three weeks from booking to the written report. Same-day diagnosis is available in urgent cases.
No. You can book directly.
The reports are written to be accepted by NHS GPs, local health authorities, schools and universities.
If your GP agrees to a shared care agreement, then yes, and that reduces the ongoing cost considerably. GPs are not obliged to agree, and practice varies, so ask yours early.
An assessment does not guarantee a diagnosis. A thorough assessment sometimes identifies something else that fits better, which is a useful outcome. The fee covers the assessment either way.
Ask us for that figure rather than the assessment price alone. Titration and review appointments after diagnosis are where the ongoing cost sits, and whether shared care transfers make a large difference.
£950 for adults, two to three weeks start to finish, consultant psychiatrist-led by video from anywhere, or in person at Beaumont Street.
