ADHD Assessments for Adults
Please visit www.midlandsadhdclinic.co.uk. where both self funding and Right to Choose ADHD assessments are offered.
Medication for ADHD (age 11+)
The ADHD diagnosis must have been made by a Psychologist within Malvern Hills Private Practice (MHPP), the NHS, another Right to Choose service, or by a Psychologist registered with our Partnership Program.
Please check with your assessor to see if they are registered with us. If not they are welcome to complete our Partnership Application form to apply.
Fees for a Medication Assessment are as follows:
- Initial Medication Assessment – £295
- Follow up – £147.50
- Prescriptions outside of appointments (£30)
Please allow at least 3 follow up appointments to fully stabilise dose and type of medication. The pharmacy will charge a fee for your private prescription to be filled which can be between £60 and £150 depending on type, dose and amount.
Once you are stable on medication, our prescriber will write to your GP to request a shared care agreement. This is at the discretion of your GP.
