Waits can depend on where you live.

From ADHD UK
Some NHS areas limit Right to Choose, so ProblemShared reports a separate wait for those areas. Check your postcode above, or see every NHS area.

ADHD UK does not recommend or endorse providers.

About the assessment wait

“Provider publishes 10-12 weeks for adult autism assessment (as of 01/10/26); 11 weeks is the midpoint. Provider states the wait is measured from the day they receive completed forms, and that it applies where the ICB has no funding limit.”

From ADHD UK
Assessment and medication waits are reported separately. We cannot calculate a total wait from these figures.

Shared care

“No, a shared care agreement is not required, but it is preferred. At the end of titration, once the patient is stable, we request shared care with their GP.”

From ADHD UK
ProblemShared has not given us referral instructions. Your GP refers you through NHS Right to Choose. Check ProblemShared referral information before you see your GP.

Waits by NHS area

Some NHS areas have a separate reported wait because they cap Right to Choose or have a local contract. In other areas, ProblemShared's usual wait applies.

Adult ADHD assessment waits by NHS area

6 weeks: 36 areas

Each part of the bar is a share of NHS areas, not patients.

ProblemShared reports 6 weeks in 36 of the 36 NHS areas it has given us a figure for. A red label means the area has told us it caps Right to Choose: providers there are paid for a set number of assessments a year.

Shapes show land area, not patient numbers. Shading shows reported assessment waits, not service quality. Pale grey: no area figure. Every area is listed below.

Note recorded with the figure for South East London

From 3 Nov 2025, South East London ICB requires adult ADHD referrals to go via its triage service before reaching providers.
