Understanding treatment length

Navigating ADHD is unique for everyone, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach. Therefore, most patients may require 3-4 follow-up sessions after the ADHD assessment. In some situations, such as psychological treatment, or treatment-resistant comorbid conditions, you may require more appointments. You may consider long-term therapy integrated with medication management. The treatment length is agreed upon between you and the consultant.

Evidence-based research suggests as many as 60 % of adults with ADHD may have a coexisting mental health condition, including sleep disorders, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, substance use disorders (SUD), personality disorders, or other conditions. However, sometimes the person may be dealing only with ADHD symptoms.

Screening questions

Our admin team will contact you and send a set of general mental health screening questions. The information provided will be presented to the lead Consultant, and discussed during the referral meeting. We may be able to present the following outcomes: accepting your case and contacting you for further information. Some of the enquiries may not be accommodated due to the nature of the specialist service, risk management, our procedures for taking new cases, or availability.

Our service doesn’t provide emergency services OR inpatient admissions and is not suitable for active suicidal ideation, psychosis, acute addiction relapse, recent hospital discharge or severe eating disorders.

Registration and schedule your appointment

Our medical secretary will support you in registering as a patient on our electronic medical record system. Before your appointment, you will receive a comprehensive questionnaire to complete. We understand in some cases, you may not be able to provide information from a family member.

Our clinic recommends that ADHD assessments take place via high-quality video consultation, these provide additional useful data and are more secure. He is conducting in-person consultation reviews weekly where clinically indicated at No 10 Harley Street, London office.

Your private ADHD Assessment

This starts before your appointment, as our lead consultant reviews your documents. Our approach, for undiagnosed patients, is to conduct a comprehensive private consultation of up to 2 hrs and 30 min for ADHD assessments. For patients having an existing ADHD diagnosis, we offer a 2-hour initial assessment.

We are taking on new patients and prescribing only with a comprehensive consultation, and where you consent for us to request information from your GP. Where appropriate a diagnosis is established, and careful consideration is made before a holistic treatment plan is recommended.

After the ADHD assessment

Where appropriate—and depending on your location in the UK—access to medication is facilitated within 24 to 72 hours. Our Lead Consultant completes the controlled drug prescription, which is sent to the pharmacy via a secure, tracked service. Patients or carers can then monitor the prescription journey directly.

Our Medical Secretary will share your contact details with the pharmacy and provide the clinic letter to both you and your GP. You will then be contacted to arrange your follow-up meeting as agreed with the consultant.

Medication access

To ensure clinical safety and accurate tracking, our clinic only sends prescriptions directly to registered pharmacies with which we have an established working relationship. For regulatory reasons, prescriptions are never sent to personal home addresses. Following your appointment, the pharmacist will contact you within 24–48 hours to arrange payment.

You then have the option to collect your medication in person from the London-based pharmacy or have it conveniently delivered to your home. All prescriptions remain valid for 30 days and are transmitted via a highly secure, tracked service.

Follow-up sessions

Our practice provides comprehensive 60-minute holistic follow-up sessions, as well as focused 30-minute reviews. Where appropriate, a bespoke treatment plan is implemented, utilising a holistic approach to ADHD, therapy, coaching and the management of any co-occurring mental health conditions.

Depending on your specific needs and goals, longer-term therapy may be arranged with our Lead Consultant or a recommended psychologist. The frequency and timing of follow-up care are tailored to your progress and agreed upon between yourself and your consultant.

Shared care agreement

In the majority of cases, we are aiming toward a shared care agreement once stable on effective and safe medication. This allows our patients to have access to repeat, affordable medication via the NHS GP. Once a shared care agreement is in place, we recommend a specialist follow-up for safe medication monitoring every 6 - 12 months. The review interval is decided on a clinical need basis, between yourself and the consultant.

To maintain a valid Shared Care Agreement, you must remain an active patient by adhering to your recommended treatment plan and attending all required follow-up appointments. Please account for the costs associated with these mandatory reviews.

Our practice does not charge separate administrative fees to establish a Shared Care Agreement, as this coordination is fully covered by the fee for your private consultation appointment.
