About The Edinburgh Practice

ADHD Assessment and Medication Clinic in Edinburgh

The Edinburgh Practice provides ADHD and autism assessment across the lifespan from 12 Sibbald Walk, Edinburgh EH8 8FT, and runs a separate ADHD Medication Clinic for people who have been diagnosed. Child ADHD assessment is £1,950 and a combined ADHD and autism assessment £3,250.

Why Choose The Edinburgh Practice?

  • Assessment and Medication Separately: A dedicated ADHD Medication Clinic alongside assessment, so treatment does not have to be handed to another provider
  • Across the Lifespan: Children, young people and adults assessed by the same practice
  • Central Edinburgh: One clinic at 12 Sibbald Walk, EH8 8FT, close to the city centre
  • Combined Assessment: ADHD and autism assessed together at £3,250, rather than as two separate pathways
  • Prescribing Available: The practice can prescribe where clinically appropriate

Assessment Process

Assessments are carried out at the Edinburgh clinic. The practice does not publish its assessment steps, appointment lengths, the diagnostic instruments it uses, or the registrations of its assessing clinicians — ask about these when you enquire.

Right to Choose Does Not Apply in Scotland

NHS Right to Choose is an England-only pathway and does not operate in Scotland, so a private assessment here is self-funded or covered by insurance. Independent healthcare in Scotland is regulated by Healthcare Improvement Scotland (HIS), not the CQC — worth checking the practice's current HIS registration directly.

Before You Book

Because fees for adult assessment are not published alongside the child fee, ask for the full adult price, what the report includes, and what the ADHD Medication Clinic charges per appointment over a year.
