Understanding ADHD
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders. People with ADHD may have an ongoing pattern of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interferes with everyday functioning. It is often identified in childhood, but it affects adults too, and symptoms can change with age.
ADHD is diagnosed by a qualified clinician based on a careful evaluation; there is no single test for it. Care commonly involves behavioral strategies, therapy, medication, or a combination, and is provided by clinicians such as primary-care providers, pediatricians, psychiatrists, and psychologists.
Finding the right provider
Evaluation and ongoing care for ADHD can come from several types of providers. A primary-care provider or pediatrician can often begin an evaluation and refer you onward; psychologists provide assessment and behavioral therapy; psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose and manage medication. ProviderQuoHealth shows each provider's credentials, accepted insurance, and accepting-new-patients status so you can narrow the list before you reach out.
ADHD itself isn't a medical emergency, but if you or someone you know is in crisis or thinking about self-harm, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for free, confidential support any time. In an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Don't search a directory.
