Our Services
Clinical Timeline
Pathways
We specialise in consultant psychiatrist-led diagnostic profiling for adults and children. We possess deep expertise in complex presentations.
Schedule Assessment
Your assessment begins several days before your main clinical appointment. Following initial triage, adults complete structured assessment measures and an in-depth clinical interview. All findings are carefully reviewed by our clinical team in advance of your appointment. For children, we allow additional time to develop a comprehensive understanding of their developmental history and current needs. This may include consultation with parents or caregivers and, where appropriate, information from schools and other professionals. Assessments are available online or in person for both adults and children. A GP referral is not required to book an assessment. With your consent, we can liaise with your GP or other relevant professionals to share clinical findings where appropriate.
Adult assessments involve 2.5+ hours of integrated clinical evaluation. Neurodevelopmental assessments for children are more in-depth and may take several hours, often across different stages of the assessment process. At the conclusion of your assessment, your Consultant Psychiatrist will provide verbal feedback on the diagnostic outcome. Our clinical team then integrates all available information to produce a comprehensive clinical report within 10 working days. A post-report review is arranged to discuss recommended next steps, including tailored management strategies, ongoing care, treatment, medication and/or psychological therapy. Our aftercare involves periodic follow-up check-ins.
Our digital-first screening tools are engineered with an ADHD-friendly interface, prioritising cognitive and clinical clarity. These secure online questionnaires allow for comprehensive data capture at your own pace, providing the foundation for our consultant-led diagnostic profiling. These findings contribute to a detailed clinical understanding ahead of your assessment.

Corteqa provides in-depth neurodevelopmental services for adults, children and young people seeking assessment for ADHD, autism or a combined neurodevelopmental presentation such as AuDHD. Our approach considers the whole clinical and developmental picture rather than symptoms in isolation. For children, assessment includes detailed developmental history from parents or caregivers and, where appropriate, information from school or other professionals involved in their care. We also support patients following diagnosis with treatment planning, medication where clinically appropriate, and ongoing review.
1. Who is Corteqa for?
3. What happens during and after an assessment?
Assessment begins before your main clinical appointment with questionnaires, structured measures and a detailed clinical interview. For children, additional time is allowed to obtain developmental history from parents or caregivers and, where appropriate, information from school or other professionals. The clinical team reviews and integrates the available information before reaching its conclusions. At the end of the assessment, we provide verbal feedback and, where diagnostic criteria are met, confirmation of the diagnosis. A comprehensive interpretative report and personalised recommendations follow within 10 working days. Where treatment is appropriate, we can then discuss and arrange the next stage of care.
Following assessment, Corteqa can advise on an individual treatment and management pathway where clinically appropriate. This may include ADHD medication, medication titration and monitoring, psychoeducation, psychological interventions and practical management strategies. Treatment is based on individual clinical need and is reviewed over time. With consent, we can also liaise with your GP or other professionals involved in your care.
4. Do you offer treatment or medication?
Adults and children can be assessed online or in person, depending on clinical need and the assessment pathway. Secure questionnaires and clinical interviews allow information to be gathered in advance. Children’s assessments may also include parent or caregiver consultation and information from school or other professionals. We will explain the appropriate format when your assessment is arranged.
5. How are assessments delivered?
Payment is made securely once your assessment or treatment appointment has been confirmed. The relevant fee and what is included will be explained before you proceed. Where further treatment, medication reviews or follow-up appointments are recommended, any additional costs will be discussed with you in advance.
6. When and how do I pay?
7. How can I contact Corteqa?
