I picked Psicon via Right to Choose. I am a teacher, including SEND, and already know that my child has ADHD however she is masking at school. The following information that is published on their website is why I chose them and unfortunately I have now discovered that this is false information:
"What if the assessing clinicians don't see what I see (masking)?
Having assessed thousands of children for ADHD, we are used to seeing it present in many different ways. Our assessments are designed to take masking and camouflaging into account – especially with girls. Our team are very well trained in understanding this area and our assessment includes information gathered from both home and school, as well as data captured from what’s called a QB check. A QB check is an online test created by experts in the field to objectively compare the reactions of your child against key ADHD symptoms, the results of which are compiled in a report which is used by the clinician to inform the diagnostic assessment."
This information is greatly misleading. They are taking NHS money and for what??? Without even seeing her, Psicon have refused to assess my daughter - despite evidence from home, school, an edPsyc and the QB check. I will now have to go back to the GP and request referral to another provider, which will cost the NHS more money.
The Government are cracking down on Right to Choose and I can now see why!
If you are thinking of going for a private assessment with Psicon, I certainly wouldn't waste money with these charlatans.
