Looking for an adhd specialist psychiatrist, someone who can do an evaluation and testing in nyc. I’m hearing crazy numbers like $3500 for evaluation and $2500 for written reports etc 🤯 doesn’t have to be in network but also how is anyone supposed to get help when an evaluation is $4K??

Is this out of pocket? I am in Chicago and this is like 20 years ago, but I was already seeing a psychiatrist and told her I thought I might have ADHD. She made me take a short test, prescribed me medication and then had a follow up to see how the medication was doing. It wasn’t a big deal and wasn’t more expensive than my normal appointments. I am sure things have changed, but it was a relatively simple process. Same with my son, I took him to a pediatric specialist, he said he had adhd after one appointment and then I followed up with primary doc for prescription. This was a few years ago. Does that help?

I don’t know why these evaluations would be so expensive. Any good psychiatrist can diagnosis ADHD.
