On the last published figures, NHS adult neurodevelopmental waits in Scotland average 182 weeks at their longest; private ADHD assessments average 71 days. ADHD Scot independently compares Scottish providers. We cannot verify its figures, but we would always rather you found the service that suits you best, even if that is not us.

Caledonian Psychiatry

Caledonian Psychiatry was built on a simple principle: good psychiatric care depends on seeing the same doctor every time. Your assessment, your follow-ups and your reports are all handled by the psychiatrist you choose: a highly experienced doctor who stays with you throughout your care.

Your psychiatrist knows your history because they were there for all of it.

The practice operates online, headquartered in North Berwick, East Lothian, and is Scotland’s first independent medical agency to be regulated by Healthcare Improvement Scotland (registration number 03427). All appointments are delivered by secure video link, so patients can be seen anywhere in the UK.

Edinburgh is our home market: the practice is owned and run by Edinburgh Psych Limited, and more of our patients live in and around Edinburgh than anywhere else in Scotland. Our guide to private ADHD assessment in Edinburgh covers the local picture in detail. For the wider context, read our guide to private ADHD assessment in Scotland.
