Paying Privately for Adult Aspergers Assessment?

ice lolly

Hello all,

I am thinking of paying privately for an adult Aspergers assessment (for myself) so that I don't have to wait for my GP to refer me, and was wondering if anyone had any experience of doing this ...

Thanks!

  • I live in north east of England and was referred to a private centre 40 miles away through my NHS GP.  I found the private diagnosis quite unhelpful as they did not have my NHS records so I got stressed having to go through my whole life history.  I got the diagnosis of Aspergers but then my NHS mental health team sent me for a NHS diagnosis as they did not accept the private one.
