Possible signs and symptoms of ADHD
Have you noticed possible signs or symptoms of ADHD? Losing things, careless mistakes, procrastination, impulsivity, or accidents? Some people with ADHD experience financial difficulties, family conflict, and chronic emotional reactivity or rejection sensitivity dysphoria. Often a close family member has been diagnosed with ADHD, autism or a learning difficulty during their schooling. If you have had difficulties since primary school with zoning out, underperformance, low self-esteem, and difficulty focussing, these might all be red flags that you live with ADHD. Read on to discover more about this debilitating and often invisible condition.
Evallies
We provide rooms to doctors that treat ADHD. Dr Robert Gillies, who founded Evallies, provides the following offer to his clients:
One Clinic, One Assessment. ADHD assessments with Dr. Gillies will offer you access to medical treatment, so you won’t need to do your assessment twice or team up with other healthcare providers before commencing medication.
We provide treatment. If ADHD is diagnosed, very few clinics also provide treatment. Being a qualified medical doctor and certified psychiatrist, Dr. Robert Gillies commences ADHD treatment with all patients who receive a formal ADHD diagnosis, should they so desire.
Short Waitlist. Timely and personalised interventions are the best way to support a person with ADHD. However, many ADHD clinics have extended waitlists or are not taking new patients. Reach out to a doctor working from the Evallies rooms to see if they can offer you the services you require.
Quality Service. Dr Gillies is a medical doctor (MBBS Hons) and paediatric psychiatrist (FRANZCP) with a Master of Psychiatric Medicine (MPM), a Bachelor of Medical Science with Honours (BMedSc Hons). He also holds additional qualifications in neuro-developmental psychiatry, and has years of clinical experience caring for people with ADHD. Dr Gillies has previously provided lecture series on ADHD diagnosing at Monash University.
Easily Accessed. The Evallies rooms are based in Hawthorn East; a central Melbourne location close to public transport and parking.
Practical Outcomes. A detailed and comprehensive assessment report is written by Dr Gillies at the conclusion of each assessment. This document is helpful in acquiring professional support and applying for funding as applicable.
Medicare Rebates. As a medical specialist, appointments with Dr Gillies are eligible to receive specialist Medicare rebates that contribute to your safety net.
