If you think you may be experiencing symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Autism, we encourage you to book an appointment with your GP to discuss it further.

Referrals will be directed to the 3Borough Service for ADHD and/or Autism assessments. Please be aware there is currently a long waiting list for these assessments. For more information, you can click here.

We understand that you have the option to use the “Right to Choose” pathway or seek a private assessment and treatment. However, please note that from June 2024, Clapham Family Practice will no longer be able to take over prescribing of ADHD medications under a Shared Care agreement with any organisation outside of the 3Borough Service. From that point, we will only accept Shared Care for ADHD medication prescribed through the 3Borough Service.

This decision has been made after careful consideration and in consultation with our local NHS ADHD service. It is essential that we ensure the highest standard of care for all our patients within the resources and expertise available to us.

We understand this may be disappointing, but we want to assure you that this decision was not taken lightly. Our priority is always the safety and well-being of our patients, and we believe this step is necessary to maintain the quality of care you deserve.

For those who are currently under the care of private ADHD providers, we recommend discussing your options directly with your provider.  We can offer to refer you to our local NHS provider with submission of your private ADHD assessment report for further support.
