Excellent experience
I was very apprehensive before my assessment with Dr Kipralanibut I shouldnt have worried at all
He quickly put me at ease, was so kind and attentive and explained everything clearly . I felt so heard, seen and validated. If you are considering an assessment I would thoroughly recommend Dr Kipralani at the ADHD Centre

The best health investment
I had the enhanced holistic adhd assessment with Dr Kripalani from the ADHD centre and the process to date has exceeded my expectations.
Having this diagnosis in my late 40s was the best investment I could have made and one I wish I had done years ago as it has answered a lot of my life and health struggles.
The Dr created a safe space for me to share my symptoms and life experiences. He also brought an immense amount of positive energy and gentle humour which is exactly what I needed.
The enhanced QB check was an online assessment I completed before my meeting with the Dr. It was very useful visual tool to really show where I am struggling with impulsivity and inattention.
The booking was easy and straightforward and I was able to have an assessment 2 weeks after I started investigations.
I look forward to working with the adhd centre for the next steps in this new health journey.

Dr Kripalani was amazing, very kind and understanding and welcoming throughout which put me at great ease straight away.
I felt completely understood after so many years of not being heard, and I am so very grateful I have been honoured to have met with and been assessed by him. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
