ADHD & Autism Assessment Providers in Cornwall
Cornwall is served by the NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly ICB. NHS neurodevelopmental waiting lists in the county are long, and in-person assessment options are more limited than in urban areas — making the private clinics that do operate in Cornwall, in towns such as Truro and Hayle, particularly valuable. Online providers serving the whole of England are also an important route for residents in more remote parts of the county. NHS Right to Choose applies in Cornwall as it does across England.
NHS Right to Choose is available in Cornwall. NHS Right to Choose is available via the NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly ICB. Ask your GP to refer you under Right to Choose to any eligible CQC-registered provider — including online providers if travel is difficult.
