After years of waiting for an autism assessment I decided to go privately. From the first phone call to the last assessment, I felt comfortable, acknowledged and respected. I had to drive 6 hours for the face to face assessment as I live quite far away, but it was all worth it. Thank you for everything, thank you for helping me understand myself a little bit better.

Diverse Diagnostics are worth every penny. When I attempted to access an ADHD assessment through my local NHS service they were so dismissive that they wouldn't even put me on the waiting list, so I started looking for private providers. The first time I called Diverse Diagnostics I had expected to ask a few questions so that I could get a feel for what to do next. I didn't expect them to take such a detailed interest right from the first call. They were the first people to really listen when nobody else would. They asked all the right questions, and I left that first call feeling heard, helped, and valid - it was the first time that I wasn't treated with scepticism and doubt. I went for the Adult Enhanced ADHD assessment, and each step made me feel more and more like I was finally in the right place. There was initially an expected wait of a few weeks, but I went through the QB Check and was able to bring my assessment forward after a cancellation, and came out with a confirmed diagnosis for ADHD before commencing medication through private prescriptions from Diverse Diagnostics. Fast forward a few months (having finally managed to get the NHS to engage with me), my care has now been transferred to the NHS and I get my prescriptions from them. The robustness of Diverse Diagnostics' report was a huge help, exceeding NHS criteria and leaving no doubts whatsoever about the validity of my diagnosis. I can't find a single negative thing to say about Diverse Diagnostics, it all just.... works: I never had any trouble getting through on the phone, staff are always helpful and friendly, they communicate well internally (I never had to explain myself over and over again to different people), there were never any mishaps with scheduling/appointments. They know what they're about, they do it right, and they do it well. One of the hardest parts of the whole journey was deciding which private provider to go with (you hear horror stories about people paying hundreds of pounds for a diagnosis that isn't worth the paper it's printed on), and I was nervous about spending a lot of money for something that wasn't guaranteed to give me the outcome I needed. I definitely made the right choice - yes it was expensive, but there are plenty of other organisations out there charging a lot more for a lot less. Diverse Diagnostics are transparent about their fees too - they're all there on the website, none of that "contact us and wait weeks for an appointment before we hit you with a ludicrously over-inflated price" nonsense that so many other places do. A friend asked me recently if it's all been worth it, and if I would do it all again - the assessments, the diagnosis, the medication. My answer was an immediate and emphatic "yes". The medication isn't magic, it doesn't solve everything - there will always be aspects of my ADHD that make everyday life difficult - but things are easier, and I don't blame myself for the difficult bits anymore. If I ever decide that it's time to seek formal diagnosis for ASD (which is definitely also present), I'd go back to Diverse Diagnostics in a heartbeat.

Absolutely fantastic service. Literally all the staff are absolutely lovely, I had a 15 minute consultation first which was free and very helpful. My proper appointment was booked within 2 weeks, and I got to see Dr Dan who was amazing!!! The whole call took just under two hours, and he was lovely the full way through it honestly felt like chatting with a friend. Got my diagnoses at the end of the appointment and received my full report within a few working days. The only thing I will say is make sure you remember to give them your doctors email, I forgot to which slowed things down slightly but as soon as I sorted that it was plain sailing. Thank you so much again!

Huge credit to all the staff and clinicians, what an outstanding service. I highly recommend anyone to connect with the team at Diverse Diagnostics. As a therapist myself, I truly value everything they’ve done - not just for me and my son, but also for the many clients I’ve referred into their care. The level of support, compassion, and professionalism they offer is, in my opinion, world-class.

I was verbally assured by Diverse Diagnostics that I could pay for their diagnostic service in 12 monthly instalments. At the point of purchase, this payment option was not honoured and I was required to pay in full. I rejected the contract on the grounds of misrepresentation. The company refunded part of the amount but refused to return £200. As a result of this interaction, my trust in this organisation has completely broken down, and I no longer feel comfortable allowing them to handle any screening or diagnostic work for me. I have lodged a legal claim through the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service to recover the outstanding sum. AVOID
