Adult ADHD
Due to overwhelming demand the Leeds Adult ADHD Service (NHS) is currently closed to non-urgent referrals.
If you require a referral for ADHD, you will now be referred to a Navigation Team.
The Navigation Team will spend time with you understanding what your issues are, provide wrap around support and refer to other agencies/signpost to third sector organisations where needed.
A clinician will make a clinical decision about the appropriateness of an ADHD assessment, and where the need is identified, they will also process this referral. Please follow this link for more information – ADULT ADHD
Adult Autism
The Leeds Autism Diagnostic Service is still accepting referrals however, due to significant increase in demand, they are experiencing very long waiting times. Please see their website for more info – Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust -Autism Diagnostic Service (LADS)
You can be referred to a Right to Choose provider via the surgery however these services are also experiencing an increase in demand and consequently, longer waiting times than previously. You can also self-refer to a private provider of your own choice.
