Your local ADHD assessment options in Aberdeen
Aberdeen serves the north east of Scotland, where distance to specialist services is a real constraint for anyone outside the city. NHS Right to Choose does not apply in Scotland, so there is no mechanism to select a private provider at NHS expense as there is in England. NHS Scotland waits vary by health board and commonly run to years for an adult assessment. Remote private assessment is especially practical here, because it removes the travel along with the queue.

Who decides NHS funding in Aberdeen
NHS ADHD assessment for Aberdeen is commissioned by NHS Grampian. Right to Choose is a rule of the English NHS and does not apply in Scotland, so the private route here is self-funded rather than NHS-funded — a difference most national guidance glosses over.
