For many people, finally getting an ADHD diagnosis is the end of a long, exhausting chapter. It often comes after months (or years) of waiting lists, misdiagnosis, burnout, and feeling like you’ve had to “prove” your own lived experience.

So when someone reaches out for treatment and is told, “We won’t help unless you pay for another full assessment,” it can feel like the door is closing again.

At ISC-CARE, we take a different approach.

At ISC-CARE, we’re going to say something loudly — because it matters.
