When we receive your referral, we’ll send you an SMS with detailed instructions to book and pay for your appointment(s) online.

Our telehealth ADHD assessment process allows you to access specialist assessment from the comfort of your own home.

Yes. Akkadian Health provides telehealth ADHD assessments across Australia with RANZCP-registered psychiatrists.
