Welcome to Episode 158 of Parenting With Impact with Elaine Taylor-Klaus and Diane Dempster! This week’s guest is Dr. Phil Anderton, pioneer in the field of diagnosing and treating ADHD!
Phil Anderton, a visionary in the field of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), has revolutionized the way we perceive and address this condition. Through his leadership at ADHD 360, the largest and most successful ADHD medical clinic in Europe, Phil and his team have consistently pushed boundaries and paved the way for new possibilities.
Listen to this Parenting With Impact episode with Phil Anderton about ADHD diagnosis and treatment.
What To Expect This Week:
-The systematic approach to diagnosing and treating ADHD in patients of all ages, and how you can provide comprehensive care through assessments, treatment, and support services
-A shift towards acknowledging and accepting ADHD as a neurodiverse condition that requires attention and understanding.
-Addressing skepticism towards ADHD diagnosis and the benefits of medication and accommodations for individuals with ADHD.
-The importance of evidence-based practices in advocating for ADHD acceptance and treatment. By using medical evidence and a data-driven approach, Phil aims to address funding battles and challenge misconceptions about ADHD in the National Health Service and educational institutions, with the goal of making positive impacts on individuals' lives through evidence-based interventions and treatment options.
-Digitized clinic processes streamline patient journeys and enhance assessments through video conferences. By offering assessments in patients' homes, the clinic reduces anxiety associated with in-person visits, leading to more accurate results and improved patient outcomes.
-Phil and Diane explain the ADHD diagnosis process can be simplified by blending qualitative and quantitative data. By using screening tools, DSM criteria, and semi-structured interviews, clinicians can streamline the diagnostic process to a few hours of focused assessment.
