ADHD - Right to Choose
If you live in England and are registered with a GP Practice, you have the legal right to choose your preferred ADHD and mental healthcare provider. Importantly, this means that if you decide for any reason that you do not want to receive care from a particular provider - perhaps the waiting times are too long for your liking - you can choose to receive care from a different provider of your choice.
Here at Vertis we aim to provide a service that you feel confident in choosing. Our team is dedicated to providing you with a level of care and support that puts you at ease and helps you take control.
Is Vertis the correct provider for you?
Our ADHD service is an online and in-person servive, aiming to provide you with the best possible pathway for your care. We understand that every individual has different needs, which is why we offer multiple appointment types.
Currently, under Right to Choose, only adults can be referred. Children and adolescents can be referred into the Children and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) via school or GP referral.

The Patient Pathway
Whether you’re interested in receiving an ADHD diagnosis or receiving care for a completed diagnosis, please contact your GP practice. Once your GP is satisfied that you would benefit from receiving care, you can elect to choose Vertis as your provider of choice.
From there, we will contact you [TIMEFRAME] to organise an appointment and help you receive the the correct care for you.
How to access this service
If your GP practice suggests referring you into an ADHD or mental healthcare service, you can choose for your referral to be sent to us. It can usually take up to 4 weeks for your referral to be processed - if you haven’t heard from us within this time, please contact your GP practice.

All referrals into ADHD services are through a healthcare provider, usually your GP. You can let your GP know that you’d like to be referred into our service, but your GP must first decide to refer you before you choose your preferred provider.
