Cheaper clinics A low price up front - but follow-up appointments are charged per appointment, and ongoing care then adds up month after month.

Value, not just price

The cheapest price is rarely the real price.

An ADHD diagnosis is only the start - the bigger costs come later, in the follow-up and review appointments. Many services keep the headline price low and add it all on afterwards. We would rather look after you properly: clear costs from the start, and a route to lower-cost NHS care afterwards.

Low-cost services
ADHD Direct
The assessment
A low headline price to draw you in.
£895, fixed and clear - your diagnosis and full report included.
Follow-up appointmentsThe early appointments after diagnosis where your clinician reviews how you are getting on and adjusts your care plan.
Charged per appointment, and several are usually needed early on - which adds up.
Explained and priced clearly upfront, so you know what to expect before you begin - no surprises.
Ongoing care
Ongoing monthly charges billed on top, month after month, which adds up.
Afterwards, we support moving your ongoing care to your NHS GP, so you are not locked into ongoing private fees (at your GP’s discretion).
Reviews
Extra review fees on top each year.
Reviews are £35-£145 when needed - and free for eligible patients.
Annual renewal
At some clinics, an annual renewal fee every year, just to stay on their books.
No monthly fees and no annual renewal - and a route to lower-cost NHS care afterwards.

It is easy to compare two headline prices and pick the lower one - but a diagnosis needs looking after in the months that follow, and that is where a low starting price quietly turns into a much bigger bill. Some clinics charge a low headline price, then monthly fees in the early months and, at some, an annual renewal fee every year just to stay on their books. Here is roughly how the first year lands.

A low number to get you in - then per-appointment, monthly and yearly renewal charges add up.

Typical first-year costaround £895-£1,100

£895 fixed and all-inclusive - no monthly fees, no annual renewal, reviews £35-£145 (free for eligible patients), plus a route to lower-cost NHS care afterwards.

The left-hand figure is illustrative of the general pattern seen across cheaper services and varies by provider; it is shown to explain how per-review, monthly and annual renewal charges accumulate, not to describe any one clinic. Moving care to your NHS GP is always at their discretion.

The £895 is not just an appointment - it is a complete diagnostic package delivered by a qualified ADHD clinician, with the paperwork you actually need afterwards. Here is exactly what is inside it.

  • A 2-hour specialist assessment with a qualified ADHD clinician - not a rushed 20-minute call - against recognised diagnostic criteria.
  • A detailed written diagnostic report you can rely on, typically sent within a couple of weeks of your assessment.
  • GP and supporting letters prepared as standard - including the letter for your GP - not billed as an add-on.
  • Next-steps and support planning - if ADHD is diagnosed, your clinician explains what the diagnosis means and the recommended next steps. Any next steps are always your choice.
  • Aftercare and follow-up - reviews £35-£145 when needed (free for eligible patients), plus documentation for your NHS GP toward lower-cost NHS care afterwards.
  • No hidden extras - your report, letters, adaptation advice and any clinically-required psychometric testing are all part of the £895.
No hidden extras. Your report, the correspondence required as part of your outcome, workplace or educational adaptation advice, and any psychometric testing that is clinically required are all part of the £895 - not surprise costs that appear later.

Common questions

Your questions, answered.

The questions people ask us most before they book - answered plainly.

What does the assessment involve?+

A structured clinical assessment with a qualified ADHD clinician who reviews your history, current symptoms and how they affect your daily life, using recognised diagnostic criteria. You receive a written diagnostic report afterwards.

Who carries out the assessment?+

Assessments are completed by a qualified ADHD clinician. Our team has experience across mental health, general medicine, paediatrics and neurodevelopmental care, and works to recognised clinical standards.

What happens after diagnosis?+

If ADHD is diagnosed, your clinician will talk you through the next-steps and support options available and explain the recommended options. Any next steps are always your choice.

How are appointments held?+

Adult ADHD assessments are available online across the UK, held securely by video call.

Can my care move to my NHS GP?+

Afterwards, moving your ongoing care to your NHS GP can be requested, but it is always the GP's decision. If it is not accepted, we can continue to support your care where clinically appropriate.

Why is the assessment £895?+

Because it is a complete, regulated clinical service - not a questionnaire or a quick screening call. The £895 covers a full 2-hour specialist assessment with a qualified ADHD clinician, a detailed diagnostic report, the letters you need (including to your GP), and next-steps planning if ADHD is diagnosed. It is one clear, fixed price with the paperwork built in, rather than a low starting figure that grows appointment by appointment.

Is it worth paying more than cheaper services?+

We think so, for two reasons. First, a diagnosis you can rely on - completed by a qualified clinician to recognised standards - and a report others will take seriously. Second, the real cost. Cheaper services often keep the headline price low and add per-review charges and ongoing monthly fees afterwards, which usually adds up to far more over the first year. Our reviews are £35-£145 (and free for eligible patients), with a route toward lower-cost NHS care afterwards.

Can I spread the cost?+

To a degree, yes. A deposit is taken when you book to secure your appointment, with the balance due before the appointment itself - so it is not all payable in one go up front. If you would like to arrange instalments, that can be discussed directly with the clinic. Some people also book a few weeks ahead, which naturally gives more time to spread the payment before their appointment.
