How much does a private ADHD assessment cost in London?
Private ADHD assessments in London typically cost between £1,200 and £2,500. At ADHD Clinics, the fee is £600 for adults — less than half the London average — with no hidden costs and no tiered pricing.

We back this with the UK’s only like-for-like price promise: find a Consultant Psychiatrist-delivered ADHD assessment anywhere in the UK at a lower price — before or after your assessment — and we will refund the difference, no questions asked.
What happens during a private ADHD assessment at ADHD Clinics?
Your assessment is conducted by a GMC-licensed Consultant Psychiatrist — the most senior level of medical specialist in private practice. Unlike many private providers who begin with nurse-led screenings or preliminary questionnaires, your very first appointment at ADHD Clinics is with the Consultant who will assess and, if appropriate, diagnose you.
The assessment follows a structured clinical interview based on NICE guideline NG87, which sets the UK standard for ADHD diagnosis. Your psychiatrist will explore:
• Current ADHD symptoms across inattentive, hyperactive, and combined presentations
• Symptom history from childhood, including school reports or parental accounts where available
• Impact on work, relationships, daily functioning, and mental health
• Co-occurring conditions such as anxiety, depression, autism, or dyslexia
• Ruling out alternative explanations for symptoms
Validated rating scales used during assessment include the Conners’ Adult ADHD Rating Scales (CAARS) and, where relevant, the DIVA 2.0 (Diagnostic Interview for ADHD in Adults). These are the same tools used in NHS assessments.
NHS vs private ADHD assessment in London — what is the difference?
London NHS ADHD waiting lists currently range from one to five years across most boroughs. For adults who need answers, support, or workplace accommodations now, a private assessment removes that barrier entirely.
| NHS | ADHD Clinics London | |
| Wait time | 1–5 years in London | No waiting list |
| Cost | Free (via referral) | £600 all-inclusive |
| First appointment | Screening / triage | Consultant Psychiatrist |
| Clinician | Variable | GMC-licensed Consultant Psychiatrist |
| Diagnosis report | Standard | Detailed, shareable |
| Treatment start | Months after diagnosis | Same pathway, fast |
| Shared care | Varies by GP | Supported shared care |
| Online availability | Limited | Fully online, UK-wide |
A private assessment does not prevent you from accessing NHS services in the future. A diagnosis from ADHD Clinics is accepted by GPs for shared care prescribing arrangements, and your report can be used to access workplace adjustments under the Equality Act 2010.

Is ADHD Clinics CQC registered?
Yes. ADHD Clinics is a CQC-registered (Care Quality Commission) private mental health clinic. CQC registration means the service is subject to independent regulation and inspection against national standards for safety, effectiveness, and quality of care. This is the same regulatory framework that governs NHS services in England.
Can I get an ADHD assessment online in London?
Yes. All ADHD Clinics assessments are conducted online via secure video consultation. This means you can access a Consultant Psychiatrist-led ADHD assessment from anywhere in London — whether you are in Central London, East London, South London, or the surrounding commuter areas — without travelling to a clinic. Appointments are available at times that suit working adults, including evenings.
What is the ADHD Clinics end-to-end care pathway?
Many private ADHD services stop at diagnosis. ADHD Clinics provides a whole pathway model — also described as end-to-end ADHD pathway management — covering every stage from first appointment through to long-term support:
| Stage 1: Assessment Consultant Psychiatrist-led clinical interview. Structured diagnostic assessment to NICE NG87 standards. | Stage 2: Diagnosis Written diagnosis report issued. Suitable for employers, DVLA, universities, and GP shared care agreements. |
| Stage 3: Treatment If medication is appropriate, your psychiatrist will discuss options including stimulant and non-stimulant medications. | Stage 4: Titration Dose optimisation with ongoing psychiatrist oversight until the right medication and dose are established. |
| Stage 5: Shared care We support transfer of prescribing to your GP under a shared care agreement, reducing long-term costs. | Stage 6: Long-term support Ongoing access to your clinical team for medication reviews, letters, and continued ADHD management. |

Online delivery does not compromise clinical quality. Every assessment is delivered by a Consultant Psychiatrist who forms a complete clinical picture through direct observation and structured interview.

Frequently asked questions about private ADHD assessment in London
How long does a private ADHD assessment take?
A full adult ADHD assessment at ADHD Clinics typically takes 60 to 90 minutes. This is a single appointment with a Consultant Psychiatrist, not a multi-stage process spread across several sessions.
How quickly can I get an appointment?
There is no waiting list. Most patients are seen within days of booking. You can book directly at adhd-clinics.co.uk/appointments.
Will I definitely receive a diagnosis?
Not everyone assessed will receive an ADHD diagnosis. Your Consultant Psychiatrist will give you an honest clinical assessment. If ADHD is not confirmed, they will discuss what the assessment findings do suggest, and whether onward referral or further investigation is appropriate.
What happens after my diagnosis?
You will receive a detailed written diagnosis report. Your psychiatrist will discuss treatment options with you, which may include medication, psychological strategies, or both. ADHD Clinics supports you through the full treatment and titration process, and assists with shared care transfer to your GP where appropriate.
Does ADHD Clinics assess autism as well as ADHD?
Yes. ADHD Clinics provides private autism assessments for adults, and combined ADHD and autism (AuDHD) assessments. Many adults present with both conditions, and assessing them together produces a more complete clinical picture. Book your autism assessment at adhd-clinics.co.uk/appointments.
Can I use my diagnosis report for workplace adjustments?
Yes. A written diagnosis report from ADHD Clinics can be used to request reasonable adjustments from your employer under the Equality Act 2010, to apply for Access to Work funding, and to support applications for Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) if you are in higher education.
What is the difference between a Consultant Psychiatrist and other ADHD assessors?
A Consultant Psychiatrist is a fully qualified medical doctor who has completed specialist psychiatric training — typically 12 or more years of combined medical and specialist education. They are the most senior clinical grade in psychiatry. Some private ADHD services use nurses, psychologists, or non-specialist doctors for assessments. At ADHD Clinics, every assessment is led by a Consultant Psychiatrist.
Is the £600 fee all-inclusive?
Yes. The £600 adult ADHD assessment fee at ADHD Clinics covers your full assessment appointment, the written diagnosis report, and entry into the care pathway. There are no hidden administration, report, or follow-up fees for the assessment itself. Treatment and titration appointments, if required, are priced separately.
