Our clinic provides comprehensive assessments for both adults and children who may have ADHD or autism. Referrals are accepted under the NHS Right to Choose pathway, giving patients access to timely assessments outside of standard NHS waiting lists.
By making a referral, you are enabling your patient to access high-quality diagnostic services delivered by experienced clinicians. The referral process is straightforward and designed to fit smoothly into GP practice workflows.

- GP practice information (including ODS code)
- Relevant background information on ADHD or autism concerns

- Copies of any supporting reports (e.g. from paediatrics, speech and language therapy, occupational therapy)
