For institutional partners and healthcare providers

Awareness is growing. Infrastructure is not.

Neurodivergent conditions, including ADHD and autism, affect an estimated 15 to 20% of the global population. Across the Middle East, recognition of these conditions as a healthcare and public policy priority is accelerating.

Yet diagnostic capacity in the region remains critically inadequate. Waiting times for assessment are long where services exist, diagnostic quality is inconsistent, and the clinical workforce trained to deliver internationally benchmarked assessments is small.

This is not a niche market opportunity. It is a structural gap in regional healthcare infrastructure.

Demand from employers, schools, and families

The region is ready. The policy environment demands it.

National development agendas across the GCC have created the conditions and the funding for world-class neurodiversity infrastructure.

Saudi Vision 2030

Explicit commitments to mental health and disability service development, with significant sovereign wealth fund capital directed into healthcare infrastructure build-out.

UAE Healthcare Transformation

The National Mental Health Strategy and Abu Dhabi's Healthcare Masterplan 2030 both identify neurodevelopmental services as a priority gap requiring investment.

Employer and Education Demand

Multinational corporations and international schools across the GCC are under increasing pressure to provide ND assessment pathways for their workforces and students.

Built on a proven clinical operation, not a theoretical model

Our methodology has been developed and refined through thousands of ADHD and autism assessments delivered across the UK and Ireland. We are the only organisation globally that offers clinician training in ADOS-2, ADI-R, and DIVA-5 while simultaneously operating a full diagnostic service.

What this means for you: the methodology being brought to the Middle East is not theoretical. It has been tested, iterated, and refined through years of real clinical delivery at scale. Every protocol, every quality standard, every training module comes from a live operation that produces measurable clinical outcomes every single day.

Our clinical leadership team, led by Sarah Phelan, a practising neurodiversity expert who is herself neurodivergent, brings deep expertise in building and scaling diagnostic services to international standards.

Mandatory Universal Peer Review

Every single assessment is peer-reviewed before diagnosis is finalised. Not for complex cases only. Universally. This is the defining quality signal in a market where diagnostic rigour matters.

Multi-Expert Group Feedback

Assessing clinician, peer reviewer, and senior expert discuss findings with the patient together. Almost no other provider anywhere in the world does this. It builds diagnostic confidence and justifies premium positioning.

Thousands of Assessments Delivered

A proven clinical operation across the UK and Ireland with years of iterative refinement. Not a model built for export on paper. A system forged through real-world clinical delivery at volume.

NICE-Aligned Methodology

All clinical standards benchmarked against NICE guidelines (NG87, NG142), DSM-5, and ICD-11. Internationally recognised, locally adapted for each GCC jurisdiction.

Neurodivergent-Led

Our founding team and many of our clinicians are themselves neurodivergent. This creates a fundamentally different culture and clinical sensitivity that traditional medical practices cannot replicate.

End-to-End Pathway

From initial enquiry through assessment, diagnosis, group feedback, aftercare, counselling, and ongoing support. Diagnosis is the beginning of the journey, not the end.

Built for institutional partners

We work with organisations that have the scale, ambition, and commitment to build neurodiversity assessment infrastructure that meets international standards.
