Leeds & NHS waits

Your local ADHD assessment options in Leeds

In Leeds, as across England, the two routes to an ADHD assessment are both under strain. The standard NHS pathway commonly involves waits of two to six years. NHS Right to Choose can be quicker, but during 2025-2026 many Integrated Care Boards have set funding limits on Right to Choose providers, and in a number of areas new assessments have been capped or paused, with some patients directed back to local waiting lists. A private assessment offers people in Leeds a faster, predictable alternative when the NHS routes stall.

Good questions

Private ADHD assessment in Leeds: FAQ

How much is a private ADHD assessment in Leeds?
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 Leeds?
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.
