Your local ADHD assessment options in Cambridge

Cambridge has an unusual relationship with this field: the AQ-10 autism screening questionnaire used across UK primary care was developed at the University of Cambridge Autism Research Centre. Research proximity does not translate into shorter clinical queues, though. The standard NHS pathway commonly involves waits of two to six years, and NHS Right to Choose was subject to Integrated Care Board funding limits across England during 2025-2026, capping or pausing new bookings in a number of areas. Independent assessment is available in the city itself.

The NHS position

Who decides NHS funding in Cambridge

NHS ADHD assessment for Cambridge is commissioned by NHS Central East ICB, formed on 1 April 2026 from NHS Cambridgeshire and Peterborough ICB and NHS Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes ICB and NHS Hertfordshire and West Essex ICB — so guidance written before then names a body that no longer exists. Whether NHS Right to Choose is open, capped or paused here is its decision, not a clinic's, and it can change at short notice. How Right to Choose works →

Good questions

Private ADHD assessment in Cambridge: FAQ

How much is a private ADHD assessment in Cambridge?
Private ADHD assessments typically range from around £500 to £2,500 depending on the clinic and what is included. ThinkBetter shows indicative pricing from your matched clinic up front, so there are no surprises before you book.
Do I need a GP referral to be assessed in Cambridge?
No referral is needed to start. Take the free screening first; if a full assessment looks worthwhile we match you with a CQC-registered clinic that can assess you privately without a GP referral.
Will my GP accept a private ADHD diagnosis?
Matched clinics produce thorough, NICE-compliant, GP-ready reports. Whether a GP offers shared care is at their discretion and never guaranteed — our quality-governance approach exists so reports stand up when a GP reviews them.
How quickly can I be assessed?
Many matched clinics offer first appointments within weeks rather than the years common on NHS waiting lists. The free screening takes about five minutes, and your clinic confirms assessment timings before you book.
