An assessment that takes your story seriously.
If you're an adult exploring whether ADHD might explain what you've been living with, the worst version of this process is a 20‑minute conversation that ends with a label and a prescription. We don't run our clinic that way.
A NeuroFX adult ADHD assessment is a single, unhurried 2 to 3 hour structured clinical assessment with a clinician, a careful conversation, structured screening using validated diagnostic tools (DIVA‑5, ASRS), and a diagnostic outcome you don't have to wait weeks for. One clinician, end to end.
Adults seeking clarity, not just a label.
Suitable for adults (18+) who've never been formally assessed for ADHD; who suspect an existing diagnosis was incomplete; or who already have a diagnosis and want a private report to support medication, shared care, or workplace adjustments.
What's included.
Every adult assessment includes the following, fixed‑fee, no upsell, no surprises.
- Pre‑assessment scoping, a short call from your clinician once you've sent a referral or booked. To confirm format, expectations and any documents we need.
- 2 to 3 hour structured clinical assessment at our Bedford clinic or over secure video, using validated diagnostic instruments (DIVA‑5, ASRS) plus a developmental and contextual history.
- Diagnostic letter within 48 hours and a full written report within 14 days, clearly explaining findings, with diagnostic clarity where appropriate.
- A feedback call if you need one, arranged once you've read the report, to walk through what it means and answer questions.
- Letters for your GP, school, university or employer, written as required to support shared‑care, reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010, and DSA applications.
- Medication options and lifestyle advice where clinically appropriate, covering stimulant and non‑stimulant pathways, exercise, sleep, executive‑function strategies and onward signposting.
The process, step by step.
A five-step pathway, designed to feel measured, not clinical, and to give you space to think between each step.
Your pathway
Typically 2 to 3 weeks totalYour report, written for you, and your GP.
The report is the centre of what we do. It's not a generic template. It's written for you to understand, and structured so your GP can act on it.
What's in the report
- A summary of presenting concerns and developmental history.
- Findings from the validated diagnostic tools used, with scores and interpretation.
- A clinical formulation, including diagnostic outcome and clinical reasoning.
- Where appropriate, recommendations for medication, psychological support, workplace adjustments and follow‑up.
- An accessible "what this means for you" section in plain English.
Reports are accepted by NHS GPs, employers, schools and DSA assessors. We can also support a shared‑care arrangement where your GP is willing.
QbCheck, objective measurement, where it helps.
In about 10‑15% of assessments we recommend QbCheck, a validated computerised measure of attention, impulsivity and activity, to strengthen the clinical picture. It’s never bundled in by default. Read more about QbCheck →
After your diagnosis.
A diagnosis isn't an endpoint, it's the beginning of being able to make informed decisions. Where it's clinically appropriate, we can support you with:
- Medication and titration, private prescribing with monthly monitoring reviews, where indicated.
- Shared‑care arrangements, we'll work with willing NHS GPs to move prescribing to NHS once you're stable.
- Workplace and education letters, supporting reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010.
- Onward referral, to psychological therapy, ADHD coaching, or specialist services as needed.

Adult ADHD assessments can be held in person at our Bedford clinic, or entirely online via a secure video platform. Both follow exactly the same diagnostic protocol, your choice is a question of what feels right, not what's clinically possible.
In person at Bedford
Our clinic is a calm, residential‑style space, not a hospital. There's a quiet waiting area, pay and display parking next door, and we run appointments to time so you're not held up.
Online (UK‑wide)
Online assessments use a secure, GDPR‑compliant video platform. Many adults find the home environment more comfortable, and the diagnostic validity is identical. We currently serve patients across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
