Prices are the clinic’s own private fee. Free on NHS means they take Right to Choose referrals, so the NHS covers that service. Online means the clinic is marked as offering the whole assessment by video call, for at least one age group. Clinics without a mark may still offer it, so ask the clinic. Most of the clinics here prescribe and around half offer shared care: both are listed on the clinic's own page.

About ADHD assessment in Brighton

Wait times vary by clinic, so compare the current wait shown for each. 1 of them accept NHS Right to Choose referrals, where the NHS pays for the assessment. Some local NHS areas now limit the number of Right to Choose assessments they fund and have set minimum waits, so an NHS-funded wait can be much longer than the private wait shown for a clinic. Before your GP refers you, ask the clinic whether it is taking Right to Choose referrals from your area and what its wait is.

Every listing shows the clinic’s assessment price, typical wait, services and reviews, so you can compare Brighton options side by side.

Private ADHD assessment in Brighton: what to know locally

Brighton and Hove is covered by NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB, which replaced NHS Sussex ICB in April 2026. The ICB does not hold consolidated adult ADHD waiting data itself (it commissions Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust alongside Right to Choose providers), so the clearest picture of the current wait comes from the individual providers rather than the board.

NHS Right to Choose is a legal right in England and lets your GP refer you to an approved independent provider at no cost to you, though it does not guarantee a shorter wait. Some clinics will write to your GP asking for shared care after a private diagnosis, but your GP does not have to agree.

Confirm prices, waits and referral status directly. Not medical advice. For anything clinical, speak to your GP.
