ADHD Clinic Oxford
Partridge ADHD Clinic
Partridge ADHD Clinic is a private ADHD clinic based in South Oxfordshire, providing ADHD assessment, diagnosis and treatment for children (aged 6+) and adults (up to 65). The clinic supports individuals across Oxford, Reading, Wantage and Newbury, as well as nationwide.
If you are looking for an ADHD assessment in Oxford or further afield, the clinic offers a careful and considered approach with in-person or online/virtual appointment options normally within 1 -2 months from initial contact.
ADHD Assessment and Treatment
You are seen by one clinician throughout your journey—from assessment to treatment and follow-up. This ensures continuity, consistency, and a full understanding of your needs over time.
Assessments are not rushed or checklist-based. Time is taken to understand the whole picture, including co-occurring factors such as anxiety, sleep, autism, trauma, and other complex life circumstances. ADHD may be part of the picture—but not always the whole explanation.
Assessments are conducted in line with NICE guidelines and include a detailed clinical interview, developmental history, and consideration of co-occurring conditions.
The clinic’s assessments benchmark against the latest guidance, including standards I have co-authored: The ADHD Assessment Quality Assurance Standard for Children and Teenagers (CAAQAS), and its predecessor, The Adult ADHD Assessment Quality Assurance Standard (AQAS). Treatment follows NICE-concordant protocols.
Care is taken to support individuals through the assessment and diagnosis process, which can be an emotional experience. Clear guidance is provided to help you understand your options and choose the most appropriate treatment.
The aim is not just to determine whether ADHD is present, but to help you leave with a clear and meaningful understanding of yourself.
Who you will be working with
Gavin Partridge is an Independent Prescriber and Registered Mental Health Nurse, qualifying in 2006. He has extensive experience working with adults, children and young people across a range of acute and long-term mental health difficulties, in both Central London and Oxfordshire.
He previously worked as a Clinical Nurse Specialist within NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) in Oxford, alongside roles in private practice since 2017. During this time, he ran ADHD clinics within the NHS and contributed to the assessment and treatment of a range of neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism, tics and Tourette’s.
Gavin now works in private practice, providing ADHD assessment and treatment for children and adults through his clinic in Wantage.
His approach is careful, consistent, and person-centred. He takes the time to understand each individual fully, recognising that ADHD often sits alongside other factors.
He chose to specialise in ADHD following diagnoses within his immediate family. This has shaped a deeper understanding of the condition, both clinically and personally. He aims to offer the same level of care, thoughtfulness, and attention that he would want for his own family, in a quicker timeframe than an NHS (typically 2-5 years) or Right to Choose (typically 12 – 24 months) waitlist, who then may place people on an additional ‘ADHD treatment waitlist’.
He believes that a good assessment should not only provide a diagnosis, but help people make sense of their experiences and move forward with clarity.
