[quote=Anonymous][/quote] That’s cute, but DMV area providers who take insurance have wait lists more than a year long. [/quote] It would be a long time here to see a neuropsych as well, but I don't know why the first stop is a comprehensive neuropsych exam instead of a GP. They can diagnose and prescribe medications for ADHD. If you need more help managing medications, go to a psychiatrist. They are all easier to get in with than a neuropsych. You can get on a waitlist with an in-network neuropsych in the meantime but at least get started with other providers. We used to live in the area, so I appreciate that we have a lower COL in our current city (private pay diagnostic exam is 1500 at a no-wait clinic), but I didn't find wait times for in-network specialists worse in VA than where we are now.
