Contact us

The Neurodevelopment Specialist Service is based at Highbury Hospital.

Our service operates Monday to Friday, 9am until 5pm (we have no inpatient facilities).

The length of appointments can vary so we try to give some indication of this on your appointment letter. Your letter will say who your appointment is with.

 

Meet the Team

NeSS is a Multidisciplinary Team (MDT). This means we are a team of staff from different professions.

Our assessment team contains:

• Clinical psychologists
• Speech and language therapists
• Psychiatrists
• Occupational therapists
• Nurses

We also have a team of non-medical prescribers who manage ADHD medication and shared care.

Your appointment letter will tell you which member of the team you will see at your appointment.

Diagnostic assessments for autism usually involve more than one member of the team.

We have a main waiting area (pictured below) with free water facilities and toilets available whilst you are waiting for your appointment.
