My experience with them Private ADHD was brilliant. The staff are very helpful and times saving and you just got what you needed instant no wasting time. God bless them. I was actually really worried about getting the medication for my daughter. She was struggling for a long time and we couldn’t get prescribed, 24 hours I’ve seen the doctor and I got my medication. I highly highly recommend them if you’re struggling with ADHD please contact them ASAP. Your life will be sorted. Thank you.

I've only just discovered Private ADHD but I'm super impressed so far. I reached out to their secretaries with some queries and they were really knowledgeable and helpful. I'll definitely be booking an ADHD assessment in the future

I spoke with Dr Pav and had great insights into ADHD I cannot recommend enough. Dr Pav is incredibly insightful around ADHD.

Mythri Ravoori

Very happy, I was being messed about elsewhere these guys sorted me out feeling much better about my exams. I also got extra time and rest breaks sorted out with the school when other letters from other companies were rejected. The dr runs an academy so was super knowledgeable and helpful felt very lucky.

Parth

A experience beyond imagination. The private ADHD assessment was thorough, and I received my ADHD diagnosis within days. The doctor discussed ADHD medication in detail, ensuring I made the best choice for my needs.

Sharad Gupta

The experience was made as easy as possible, which helped me massively. Dr Kooner was very easy to talk to and ask questions to also.

Dr. Kooner is the best doctor both myself and my daughter have had the pleasure to meet and work with. He has transformed our lives in the way he listened to us and diagnosed both of us. He has an incredible bedside manner, very thoughtful, measured and never judging. He also has a very good aftercare service and you can see and feel he is genuinely caring for you and seeking the best possible outcome. I highly recommend Dr.Kooner

The doctor was very nice and it doesn't matter I was very stressed feeling like on exam he did everything to make the assessment as calm and as nice as possible. I am recommending assessment here to everyone. I received my assessment the same day on my email. Everyone working here are great very patient and kind. God bless you all.

Maya Stefanova

"Dr. Kooner is the best! He is so reliable and has great and fast communication. When I first moved to London, it was very difficult for me to get the ADHD prescription, I was taking in the states. I thought I wasn’t going to be able to take my medication here anymore until I found PrivateADHD. They made it so easy and stress-free to get my prescription and I cannot recommend them enough."

I am extremely satisfied with the level of care offered by this clinic. The team of specialists demonstrates not only high professional expertise but also empathy and understanding, which makes every visit a pleasant experience. Thanks to Angel's efficient organization, my son was diagnosed and started treatment within just a week. The diagnostic and treatment process was thoroughly explained, and the approach to the patient is individualized and fully tailored to their needs. Thanks...

I can’t recommend this company enough. It’s been life changing for me. Lovely people to deal with through the whole process. I have spoken to Mercadez Muniz from the start. She couldn’t do enough for me to help me on this journey. I would be lost without her help.

"An outstanding service! I was nervous about seeking a private ADHD assessment, but the team made me feel comfortable. My ADHD diagnosis was explained thoroughly, and I was given the right ADHD medication to improve my focus and mental clarity."

I waited nearly 2 years for an NHS ADHD diagnosis; following the NHS appointment in April I was told the wait to start medication would be 8-10 months. In complete despair, I decided to seek private treatment- I contacted Dr Kooner and was able to book a diagnostic reassessment and initial medication titration appointment within 24 hours, and received my first prescription within 3 days. Having access to medication has been an absolute game changer for me and I am so thankful to Dr Kooner

"I've never been listened to since I've been able to go to the doctors myself for help... It wasn't until I seeked private help with Dr Kooner at PrivateADHD, where I was finally listened to and taken seriously. He went through everything in so much detail and diagnosed me with ADHD. We have regular catch ups to ensure the medication is working for me, which is great... Since being placed on the recommended medication by Dr Kooner, my life has changed for the better, everyone around me has seen such a positive outcome and change."

Betheney

"Absolutely amazing company and people working for it, couldn’t recommend more. Life changing decision and one of the most positive experiences I have ever had. My doctor it’s so easy to talk to, so compassionate about what he does, it makes so easy to connect and feel so comfortable to open up and he totally honest. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Dr Kooner and all the team!"

Agnes Zwierk

"Dr Kooner actually spent ages discussing my adult son & related issues. It is easy to make appointments, Dr Kooner is always on time, lovely to speak to & the medication arrives pretty much within 48 hours. I am just so glad that we came across Dr Kooner & Private ADHD. Thank you Team Dr Kooner!"

Lucy

"Very helpful doctor. His deep understanding of the unique challenges that come with ADHD is evident in every interaction and his support extends beyond just medical treatment - for eg. he routinely discusses and offers practical strategies to manage daily life. He takes the time to understand each patient’s individual needs and provides tailored advice that makes a real difference. For anyone seeking a comprehensive, well-rounded approach to ADHD treatment, I would highly recommend Dr. Kooner."

"After several difficulties with pharmacies previously due to the stock issues when I was under the GP temporarily I was so grateful that Private ADHD was able to see me within 48 hours and I had medication delivered to my house which was a pleasant surprise.

Cannot recommend enough, efficient, thorough and seamless experience.I felt the prices and process was explained clearly I understood how many I will need before getting transferred to the GP"

"Had a consultation with Dr Pav. Cannot recommend highly enough, I had been struggling with symptoms that had been affecting my life for some time. I went to the GP and was told the waiting time was 3-5 years.Booking with privateadhd.co.uk was surprising easy. Once I chose my appointment and confirmed the booking I was sent a pre assessment questionnaire that took about 30 mins to complete, I filled this out with my partner.After this I received a phone call from the doctor and we confirmed the video call appointment for the very next day..."

Vinay Tagger

"I had an exceptional experience with PrivateADHD for my ADHD diagnosis, and for anyone stuck on the lengthy public waitlist, I highly recommend taking the leap and seeking a private assessment through them...

From day one, PrivateADHD was incredibly responsive and supportive. Out of all the private clinics I reached out to, they stood out for their kindness and willingness to address any question or concern I had along the way. I’m genuinely grateful for the care they showed me, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice to go through them..."

"I have been affected by ADHD symptoms all of my life and decided after family members had been diagnosed and treated with good results that I should try and get an assessment and see if I could benefit from treatment. I was assessed by Dr Kooner over a video chat and found him to be very thorough, informative, patient and helpful... I felt listened to and that I was given informed choice and that my views and opinion mattered. He didn’t rush me and I felt that the experience was safe and comfortable..."

Seana

"I have been suffering from a significant number of ADHD symptoms as a child, which worsened over the years. This convinced me to get assessed for ADHD privately, as the NHS waiting list is extremely long (up to 4 years for an assessment).

I liked how he intensively explained what causes ADHD, how ADHD runs in families, and such. Finally, as someone who has ADHD, he completely understands the debilitating and crippling effects ADHD has had on me academically, socially, and mentally throughout the years."
