Looking for a private ADHD assessment in the UK? Here’s everything you need to know about the process, costs, what to expect, and how to access fast, professional ADHD diagnosis and treatment options through a nurse-led clinic.
What Is a Private ADHD Assessment?
A private ADHD assessment is a comprehensive clinical evaluation carried out by experienced healthcare professionals to diagnose Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in adults.
Unlike the NHS pathway, which often involves long wait times, a private assessment provides:
Faster access (appointments within 2–4 weeks)
Personalised attention
Detailed diagnostic reports recognised by GPs and employers
Access to private prescriptions when clinically appropriate
At our clinic, nurse prescribers with specialist ADHD expertise conduct all assessments, in line with NICE guidelines.

Treatment: Access to private prescriptions for ADHD medication (subject to assessment).
