At ASCEND’s Atlanta ADHD testing, ADHD isn’t just a childhood disorder. Even though ADHD often begins in childhood, many patients are never diagnosed until much later. At ASCEND’s Adult ADHD testing, neurologists with years of clinical experience use objective, evidence-based methods to assess and treat the condition.

FACT:

A person with ADHD might have other emotional disorders.

FACT:

ADHD affects people of all ages, sexes and intelligence levels.
