Description

Getting an ADHD diagnosis can be a mixed experience, some people find it straightforward, while others face challenges.

In this episode, Sam and Katie find out more about how the diagnostic process works and where it might be improved. They speak to Professor Peter Hill, consultant child and adolescent physiatrist who sees the need for a more standardised approach to ADHD testing.

We’ll be back on Wednesday for the bonus episode of You're Wrong About ADHD. You can get in touch with the team by sending your questions and stories to ADHDpodcast@global.com.
