Leicester's private ADHD market is smaller than London or Manchester's, but it's a genuinely useful one to compare: 4 of the 6 clinics we list offer a combined ADHD and autism assessment, which matters if you suspect both conditions might be relevant to you.

What a private ADHD assessment costs in Leicester

Only 3 of the 6 Leicester clinics we list publish a fixed price online; among those, verified fees range from £500 to £1,800. The lower end is a single fixed-fee provider; the upper end is a national psychiatrist-led chain with locations in several UK cities. For the rest, you'll need to contact the clinic directly for a quote.

What actually drives the price

NHS Right to Choose in Leicester

Under NHS Right to Choose, you can ask your GP to refer you to an alternative NHS-commissioned assessment provider instead of joining your local waiting list, at no cost to you. Availability depends on your NHS Integrated Care Board and can be limited or paused, so confirm current capacity with your GP. See our Right to Choose guide for the full mechanism and a copy-paste GP letter template.
