Read the transcript

Hello, I'm Tina. I'm the lead clinician at NeuroFX. At our CQC-registered clinic, we offer specialist autism and ADHD assessments for children aged six and over and adults.

So after booking an assessment with us online or in person, you'll then be invited to take part in the onboarding process, and that is for you to be able to tell your story. It will include physical and mental health history, and then after that, you'll be sent some additional screening tools, which can all be completed in digital format online. You can pause at any time, and you can do that in the comfort of your own home. This enables me to better understand your story and your individual needs before we meet.

Next is your ADHD assessment, which is either online or in the clinic, coming to talk to me face to face. The process does take about two to three hours. That'll give you a chance to hopefully feel relaxed in an environment where you can tell me about the impacts and difficulties and how these have affected you. This follows all NICE guidelines.

In some situations, I may be able to tell you the diagnosis on the same day that we meet. In other scenarios, I might have to perhaps gain some more evidence. You might need to talk to other people, employers, family, partners, school, university, for me to be able to get a really good idea of the evidence, perhaps that you can't see yourself, and might help towards that diagnosis. You'll be provided a diagnostic report, provided I have all of that evidence, within 14 days.

So wherever you are on your journey, all the information is available on our website. You could book a call to talk to our team. You can book online. You can also simply email us if you have any questions. We do have payment plans available to pay in three or four instalments. So we look forward to meeting you and working with you on your journey.

Meet your clinician

Meet Tina, your Dunstable ADHD clinician.

Tina Fox is Clinical Lead at NeuroFX. Every online adult ADHD assessment for Dunstable patients is led by her personally. A short video introduction to who we are, why we do this, and what to expect.

Take a couple of minutes with it. The point of the video is to make the room feel less unfamiliar before you even book a conversation.

Your local NHS context

Dunstable ADHD waiting times and your NHS options.

You are served clinically by NHS Central East ICB. A private NeuroFX assessment is typically 6 to 8 weeks (next available soon).

Local NHS context and support

Dunstable sits in Central Bedfordshire, an area where local NHS services have been under real pressure. The Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes Autism Service, run by East London NHS Foundation Trust, states on its own page that adults are currently waiting around 14 months for a pre-assessment and 3.5 to 4 years for a diagnostic clinic appointment, while local GP practices report adult ADHD waiting times exceeding five years in Bedfordshire and Luton.

In response, the BLMK ICB has commissioned the local charity Talkback to offer adults on the autism waiting list a free six-week course of weekly support sessions, with face-to-face sessions launching in early 2026 in Bedford, Leighton Buzzard, Dunstable and Luton (Wheatfield Surgery and Toddington Medical Centre patient notices, December 2025). Demand for children's specialist provision is rising too: in December 2025 Central Bedfordshire Council opened a new social, emotional and mental health provision at Larwood School on Beech Road in Dunstable, noting specialist places across the area had grown from 1,069 to more than 1,167 in two years.

From 1 April 2026 the BLMK ICB closes and the area moves to the new NHS Central East ICB, although where people are seen does not change. A private assessment with NeuroFX, a CQC-registered clinic, sits alongside NHS care rather than replacing it; any move to shared care for medication remains at the GP's sole discretion, so if shared care matters to you it is worth speaking to your GP first.

Families in Dunstable can also draw on local support, including the Dunstable-based SNAP Parent Carer Forum and Autism Bedfordshire.

Right to Choose ADHD in Dunstable.

Two things every Dunstable 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 · NHS-funded

Right to Choose, plainly explained.

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.

If RTC is your priority, check the tracker first. If a fast private route is your priority, that is what NeuroFX is for.
Open the ADHD UK tracker →
Shared care · GP prescribing

Shared care is your GP's decision.

Entering into a shared-care agreement after private titration is entirely at the individual GP's sole discretion, and is also affected by NHS Central East 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 Dunstable GP before booking to understand their position. We will provide a structured handover designed to make that conversation as easy as possible.

No surprises. We'd rather lose a booking than have you discover this after you've paid.

About the Dunstable patients we see

In and around Dunstable.

Dunstable sits at the foot of the Chiltern escarpment where the ancient Icknield Way crosses Watling Street -- one of the great crossroads of prehistoric and Roman Britain -- and the town has been at a junction of routes ever since. The Dunstable Downs above the town, managed by the National Trust, are some of the finest chalk downland in England, used for gliding, kite flying and walking with spectacular views across the vale below.

The Priory Church of St Peter in the town centre is all that survives of a twelfth-century royal priory and is considerably grander than you would expect from a town of this size. Dunstable is unpretentious and practical, with a strong sense of community identity.

This page is for Dunstable, Luton, Leighton Buzzard, Houghton Regis, Toddington, Hockliffe, Kensworth, Markyate, Studham and surrounding villages.
