NHS ADHD assessment in Manchester falls primarily under Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust (GMMH), which provides both adult and CAMHS pathways across the city and surrounding boroughs. Waiting times for a formal NHS ADHD assessment in this area are substantial, with many adults and families reporting multi-year waits from initial GP referral to first clinical appointment, reflecting nationwide capacity pressures that are particularly acute in a densely populated urban region like Greater Manchester. GPs across Manchester vary in their confidence with ADHD referrals; some follow a straightforward pathway to GMMH, while others may initially signpost patients toward talking therapies or request GP-level screening tools before referring, which can add further delay. The Right to Choose pathway is available to adults in England, including those registered with Greater Manchester GP practices, and has seen growing uptake locally as families and individuals seek to reduce waiting times. For those navigating this often frustrating wait, a qEEG brain activity screening can provide objective, neurophysiological evidence of attention-related patterns, offering something tangible and clinically meaningful to bring to future NHS or other appointments.
