Assessment Process

Assessments are carried out by the service's clinicians, in Shrewsbury or by online consultation. The service does not publish its assessment steps, appointment lengths or the specific diagnostic instruments it uses: ask when you enquire.

Right to Choose

Right to Choose applies in England only and the referral must come from your GP. The NHS ADHD pathway here is for adults aged 18 and over. Ask for the current NHS waiting time, which is usually different from the private wait.
