Frequently asked questions

Is this assessment provided by the public health service?

No, Xyla is an independent provider delivering private ADHD assessments. This allows people to access an evaluation without waiting for an HSC referral pathway. Many people choose this route when they want answers sooner or prefer the flexibility of an online assessment. 

Will healthcare professionals accept the diagnosis?

Our reports are prepared so they can be used by GPs, schools, employers and other professionals involved in your care. Assessments are carried out by experienced clinicians using established diagnostic methods such as Conners and DIVA-5. The assessment process follows NICE guidance and clinical procedures used across healthcare settings, which helps ensure the findings are widely recognised. 

Schools and education authorities may also have their own criteria when considering additional support in education. If you agree, we can send your report directly to your GP. 

Can medication be prescribed through Xyla?

Yes, once ADHD is diagnosed through Xyla, a prescriber will review whether medication is suitable for you and talk through the options with you, including the benefits and possible side effects, so you can decide together. If you go ahead, you’ll have titration appointments to find the right dose, followed by regular reviews.  

If you were diagnosed elsewhere, we’ll need to confirm the diagnosis through our own assessment first. Find out more about getting ADHD medication with Xyla. 

Medication is only one option, and we also provide information, lifestyle guidance and resources through post-diagnostic support. 

How is my data protected?

Confidentiality is taken very seriously. All appointments and records are managed under strict privacy standards and comply with GDPR regulations. Your information stays secure and is never shared with third parties without your consent. 

Don’t worry about long waiting times and access the help you need sooner. Book your private online ADHD assessment with Xyla and take the next step with a trusted provider for ADHD assessments in Belfast.
