Am I eligible for an ADHD Assessment?
At Broadbeach Medical Centre, ADHD assessments are available for children (aged 8 years and over) with Dr Gabriela Rocha.
Your child may be eligible for an ADHD assessment if there are ongoing challenges with:
-
Attention, focus, or concentration
-
Organisation, time management, or completing tasks
-
Impulsivity, restlessness, or difficulty sitting still
-
Emotional regulation or frequent overwhelm
-
Academic, behavioural, or workplace difficulties that may be linked to ADHD
-
Concerns raised by teachers, family members, or health professionals
These appointments are longer than standard GP visits and provide a supportive, structured space to explore how symptoms affect daily life at home, school, or work.
If ADHD is diagnosed, Dr Rocha can provide ongoing GP-led treatment and management for children, often without the need for a psychiatrist referral.
