Every NeuroFX child dual ADHD and autism assessment is conducted personally by Tina. 15 years of specialist mental health nursing experience and extensive neurodiversity specialist care, having conducted hundreds of ADHD and autism assessments. Tina is also an independent prescriber and an advanced specialist paediatric sleep practitioner. Assessments and prescribing follow NICE NG87 (ADHD) plus NICE CG128 (autism in under-19s).
For Aylesbury patients in particular, child dual adhd + autism is multidisciplinary by design. Tina leads your assessment and report; Cheyenne Contreras, NeuroFX's specialist ADOS-2 practitioner, co-conducts the ADOS-2 observation. After the session both clinicians attend the internal MDT case review before your follow-up video call. Meet Cheyenne on the About page →
Aylesbury patients are seen in person at our Bedford clinic. This service is in-person only because it requires direct clinical observation or measurement that video cannot replicate.
Bedford Consulting Rooms on Goldington Road is a calm, residential-style space, not a hospital. Pay and display car park immediately next door (1 minute walk). Central rail station 8 minutes walk.
You are served clinically by NHS Thames Valley ICB. A private NeuroFX assessment is typically 6 to 8 weeks (next available soon).
Aylesbury is the county town of Buckinghamshire, served by Stoke Mandeville Hospital, where Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust gained approval in March 2026 for a new £9.8m therapies and outpatients building. For children and young people, NHS autism and ADHD assessment runs through the Oxford Health CAMHS Buckinghamshire neurodevelopmental team, which reports that referrals have nearly doubled since June 2024 even as it more than doubled the number of young people assessed each month in 2025, while Buckinghamshire Council describes the neurodevelopmental waiting list as currently over two years.
NHS planning for the area also changed on 1 April 2026, when NHS Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West (BOB) ICB closed and its responsibilities passed to the new NHS Thames Valley ICB; before it closed, BOB ICB stated it had budgeted £3 million for Right to Choose assessments against provider estimates of up to £11 million. NeuroFX offers private ADHD and autism assessment alongside this NHS care, never as a replacement for it, and Buckinghamshire Council confirms that a private assessment does not affect a child's position on the NHS waiting list.
If shared care matters to you, we recommend speaking to your GP before booking, as any shared-care arrangement remains at the GP's sole discretion. Local support is also available through charities such as Talkback and Autism Bucks, and through the Buckinghamshire All-Age Autism Strategy 2025 to 2030.
Adult ADHD services commissioned via this ICB. Right to Choose is available to some patients in this area.
Figures reflect the trust's own published service page at time of last review. Re-check before relying on it for any decision.
Two things every Aylesbury patient asks about. We've separated them clearly here so you can decide your route with full information, rather than discovering the catch after you have booked.
Right to Choose is an NHS England policy letting eligible patients choose any NHS-contracted provider for ADHD assessment, including some private providers funded by the NHS. It is not a NeuroFX service.
It exists, has helped people, and has been overwhelmed in turn: published waits at many RTC providers are now measured in years. The ADHD UK tracker is the single best place to compare current RTC provider waits.
Entering into a shared-care agreement after private titration is entirely at the individual GP's sole discretion, and is also affected by NHS Thames Valley ICB policy. We cannot guarantee any GP will take on prescribing responsibility following a private assessment or titration.
If shared care after titration is a priority for you, speak to your Aylesbury GP before booking to understand their position. We will provide a structured handover designed to make that conversation as easy as possible.
Aylesbury is the county town of Buckinghamshire and sits in the Vale of Aylesbury -- a broad, flat agricultural landscape that gives the town an openness unusual this close to London. The town centre has some fine Georgian architecture around the Market Square, and the County Museum holds a remarkable collection including the original Roald Dahl story gallery, reflecting the fact that Dahl lived and wrote nearby for most of his adult life.
Aylesbury has grown considerably as a commuter town while retaining a real centre life, and the ongoing Waterside development around the canal is adding a new dimension to a town that has always been more interesting than its reputation suggests.
