In Telford and the wider Shropshire area, adult ADHD assessments are commissioned through Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Integrated Care Board, with clinical services largely delivered by Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (MPFT), which also holds the CAMHS contract for younger patients in the region. Waiting times for both adult and children's pathways have stretched to multi-year periods in recent years, reflecting a national picture of demand significantly outpacing NHS capacity. Many Telford-area GPs have historically referred patients into MPFT's own waiting lists rather than routinely offering NHS Right to Choose options, meaning some patients remain unaware they may be entitled to choose an alternative provider at no personal cost — asking your GP directly about Right to Choose is worth doing. The combination of high referral volumes and limited local specialist staffing means capacity pressures are unlikely to ease quickly. For those facing a long wait, a qEEG brain activity screening can provide meaningful, objective neurological data to support your understanding of symptoms and strengthen your case when you do reach assessment.
