Panorama: Private ADHD Clinics Exposed

BBC One - Panorama, Private ADHD Clinics Exposed

How some private clinics are diagnosing ADHD after unreliable online assessments.

More and more people are turning to private clinics for an assessment to determine whether they have ADHD. Panorama investigates whether they are being given a reliable diagnosis.

There has been a sharp increase in the number of adults asking to be assessed for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The NHS has been overwhelmed by the number of patients looking for a diagnosis. Now thousands of people are turning to private clinics for assessment instead.

Panorama reporter Rory Carson goes undercover as a patient to reveal how some clinics are charging large fees for online assessments, and evidence suggesting diagnoses are being given to almost everyone who books an appointment.

The programme also reveals clinics prescribing powerful medication without carrying out proper checks.
