ADHD Diagnostics

ADHD Assessment in Portrush, County Antrim

ADHD Diagnostics provides ADHD assessment from Portrush, County Antrim (BT56 8DP) on Northern Ireland's north coast. Child ADHD assessment is £900.

Why Choose ADHD Diagnostics?

• North Coast Base: One of very few private ADHD services on Northern Ireland's north coast, rather than requiring a trip to Belfast
• £900 Child Assessment: A published fee for child ADHD assessment
• Evidence-Based Approach: The service describes its assessments as thorough and evidence-based

Right to Choose Does Not Apply in Northern Ireland

NHS Right to Choose is an England-only pathway. In Northern Ireland referrals go through Health and Social Care Trusts instead, so a private assessment here is self-funded or covered by insurance. Independent healthcare in Northern Ireland is regulated by the RQIA, not the CQC — worth asking about the service's registration.

What Is Not Published

The service's public pages set out its approach but not its assessment steps, appointment lengths, the diagnostic instruments it uses, its waiting time, or the names and professional registrations of its assessing clinicians.

Before booking, we would ask: who carries out the assessment and which register they are on; what the £900 covers, including the written report; whether the report will be accepted by your child's school and Trust; and what the onward route is if medication is recommended.

Medication

ADHD Diagnostics does not prescribe ADHD medication, so a diagnosis would need to be taken to a prescriber separately.
