Derry ADHD Guide

ADHD Assessments & Support in Derry

For those living in Derry~Londonderry and the North West, accessing specialist ADHD services often feels like a postcode lottery. The Western Health and Social Care Trust covers a vast area, and specialists can be scarce.

For residents of the North West, accessing specialist ADHD care has historically meant significant travel and long waits. ADHD Now changes that entirely.

The Distance: Historically, patients in the North West often had to travel to Belfast for private specialist appointments — a round trip that could take an entire day.

  • Western Trust: While services exist (e.g., at Gransha Park), demand far outstrips supply, leaving many families waiting months or even years for an assessment.
  • The Solution: ADHD Now bridges the gap. You don't need to drive to Belfast or wait for a local list to clear. You can speak to a specialist from the Waterside, the Cityside, or Strabane without leaving your home.

If you're studying at the Magee campus, a formal ADHD diagnosis can be the key to unlocking vital academic support and accommodations.

  • Ulster University (Magee): For students studying at Magee, accessing Student Wellbeing support is critical for academic success. A private diagnosis from ADHD Now provides the evidence required to secure extra time and coursework considerations.
  • Fast Turnaround: With appointments available within days, you won't miss crucial deadlines for registering with disability services or applying for exam accommodations.
  • Recognised Reports: Our Psychologist and Psychiatrist reports meet the requirements set by Ulster University, ensuring your diagnosis is accepted without question.
