What the 4 private ADHD clinics we've verified in Newcastle upon Tyne actually charge, and how NHS Right to Choose works if you're covered by a North East GP.
We've independently verified 4 private ADHD clinics serving Newcastle upon Tyne, all of which offer an online assessment. Only one publishes a fixed price on its own site — £1,300 for a full assessment — so for the rest you'll need to contact the clinic directly for a quote.
A psychiatrist-led assessment can prescribe medication directly if recommended; a nurse- or psychologist-led one usually can't and would refer you on. Only 1 of the 4 Newcastle clinics we list offers a combined ADHD and autism assessment, so check early if that's relevant to you. As with any clinic, ask what a quoted fee actually includes — the diagnostic interview and written report, or extras like a feedback session and follow-up appointment too.
Under NHS Right to Choose, you can ask your GP to refer you to an alternative NHS-commissioned provider instead of joining your local waiting list, at no cost to you. Availability depends on your NHS Integrated Care Board, so confirm current capacity with your GP — see our Right to Choose guide for the full mechanism and a GP letter template.
