ADHD Navigator by Neurohaven Clinical

Empowering Patients on Their Assessment Journey

We're excited to share ADHD Navigator (adhdnavigator.life) — a comprehensive, evidence-informed web application designed to help adults in England navigate the often complex and overwhelming ADHD assessment landscape.

The Problem We're Solving

With NHS ADHD assessment waiting times stretching to 5+ years in many areas, patients face a confusing maze of options: NHS pathways, Right to Choose providers, and private clinics. Each route has different costs, timelines, shared care implications, and medication supply considerations. ADHD Navigator brings clarity to this decision.

What Makes It Unique: Probability-Based Timeline Estimation

Unlike simple "average wait time" calculators, we employ Monte Carlo simulation (2,000 iterations per provider) to generate probability distributions. Users see the likelihood of receiving an assessment within 1, 3, 6, 12, or 18 months — not just a single number, but realistic ranges accounting for variability in provider capacity.
