ADHD Assessment & Management
At Nundah Village Family Practice, we offer a structured, GP-led assessment and management pathway for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in adults.
What to Expect:
ADHD is a complex condition that requires careful assessment over multiple appointments.
Our process includes:
-
A detailed review of your medical, mental health, and developmental history
-
Completion of standardised ADHD screening questionnaires
-
Review of childhood history (including school reports where possible)
-
Assessment of how symptoms impact your daily life
-
Screening for other conditions that may overlap with or mimic ADHD
-
Physical health checks and relevant baseline investigations
​
This allows your GP to make a safe and accurate diagnosis and develop an appropriate management plan.
Assessment Process
The assessment is completed over several appointments:
​
-
Initial Screening Appointment: A short consultation to review your history, determine if an ADHD assessment is appropriate, and provide you with the required questionnaires.
-
Comprehensive Assessment: A longer consultation where your GP reviews all completed forms, explores your history in detail, and assesses functional impact.
-
Diagnosis & Management Planning: Your GP will discuss the outcome of your assessment and outline a personalised management plan.
-
Ongoing Review: Follow-up appointments are used to monitor progress and adjust management as needed.
Before Your Assessment
You will be asked to:
-
Complete several questionnaires
-
Arrange for someone who knew you as a child to complete observer forms
