Adult ADHD evaluation & treatment
ADHD does not always look like the restless kid in a classroom. In adults it more often shows up as trouble focusing, following through, managing time, and staying organized, and many adults were never diagnosed as children. ADD is the older name for what is now called the inattentive presentation of ADHD, so we evaluate and treat both. Care starts with an in-person evaluation at our Tampa clinic. If ADHD explains what you are dealing with and treatment is appropriate, your provider builds a plan with you that may include medication and practical, non-medication strategies, then sees you every month to check how it is working and adjust it safely.
This information is educational and is not medical advice. Only a provider evaluation can tell whether you have ADHD and whether treatment is appropriate for you.
Who it's for
Common signs of ADHD in adults
Our ADHD care is for adults. In adults, ADHD is often quieter than the childhood stereotype, and years of coping can hide it. These are some of the most common signs.
Having a few of these does not mean you have ADHD. Sleep problems, stress, low mood, and thyroid problems can look similar, which is why a proper evaluation matters.
- Trouble focusing or staying on task
- Easily distracted
- Disorganized, or often losing things
- Procrastinating, or struggling to get started
- Forgetting appointments, bills, or deadlines
- Restlessness or fidgeting
- Trouble finishing what you start
- Losing track of time, or often running late
- Acting or speaking before thinking
- Feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks
How evaluation works
Your evaluation starts at your first visit, in person at our Tampa clinic, and looks at the whole picture.
- 1
Your symptoms and story
What you notice now, how long it has been going on, whether it goes back to childhood, and how it affects work, home, and relationships.
- 2
Your health history
Your medical history, current medications, sleep, stress, and mood. Other conditions can look like ADHD, so they are part of the picture.
- 3
Your records
Any prior ADHD diagnosis or records you bring. If you have been diagnosed or treated before, your provider reviews them.
- 4
A clear next step
Your provider explains what they found. If ADHD fits and treatment is appropriate, you build a plan together. If something else seems more likely, your provider talks you through next steps.
Treatment options
There is no single ADHD plan. Yours is built with your provider around your evaluation, your health history, and what you prefer. Results vary.
Medication options
Medication options may include stimulant and non-stimulant medications, chosen with your provider. Whether medication is right for you, and which one, is decided after your evaluation. No medication is promised in advance.
Non-medication strategies
Practical strategies for daily life, such as routines, reminders, and breaking big tasks into smaller steps. They can be part of your plan with or without medication.
Monthly follow-ups
A 15-minute visit every month, in person or by telehealth, to see what is working, talk through any side effects, and adjust your plan. Follow-ups are required to stay on treatment.

Adult ADHD questions, answered
Can adults be diagnosed with ADHD?+
Yes. ADHD typically begins in childhood, but many adults were never diagnosed, often because they found ways to cope until work, family, or other demands made that harder. An evaluation with a provider is how you find out whether ADHD explains what you are experiencing.
Is ADD the same as ADHD?+
ADD is an older name. Today it falls under ADHD, and what used to be called ADD is generally the inattentive presentation of ADHD: trouble focusing, forgetfulness, and disorganization without obvious hyperactivity. We evaluate and treat both in adults.
Does my first visit have to be in person?+
Yes. Your first ADHD visit is always in person at our Tampa clinic, 6904 W. Linebaugh Ave, Tampa, FL 33625. After that, follow-up visits can be in person or by telehealth.
How much does adult ADHD treatment cost?+
New patients pay $169 for their first visit when they book online and keep a card on file, which is 35% off the regular $260. The new patient visit is a 30-minute, in-person visit with a licensed provider at our Tampa clinic. After that, monthly follow-ups are 15 minutes and $136. There are no hidden fees and no contract or minimum commitment: you pay per visit, and nothing is charged when you book. The visit fee does not include medication: if your provider prescribes one, it is filled at your pharmacy.
How do I get the $169 new patient visit?+
Book online at padgettmedical.com: pick a time for your in-person new patient visit, then choose 35% off with a card on file and save your card on the secure page. Nothing is charged when you book, and the discount comes off your new patient visit when you check out.
Why is it cheaper to book online with a card on file?+
Missed appointments leave a provider's time unused. A card on file means fewer missed appointments, and we pass that saving on to you as 35% off your new patient visit. Your card is saved, not charged, when you book.
Are there any hidden fees?+
No. You pay the visit price shown, per visit, with no contract or minimum commitment. The only other charge is a $50 no-show fee if you miss your appointment without cancelling or rescheduling at least 24 hours ahead, and it can be applied to your next visit.
Can I book without a card on file?+
Yes. Your appointment stays unconfirmed until our team confirms it with you by phone, and an unconfirmed appointment is released after 48 hours. Without a card you pay the full price. Booking online with a card on file takes 35% off your new patient visit.
Is there a discount for college students?+
Yes. If you're enrolled in college and have a valid college ID, you get 50% off your new patient visit: $130 instead of $260. Monthly follow-ups after that are the regular $136, the same for everyone. Choose it when you book online and keep a card on file, then bring your college ID to your visit, where we check it. Our college student ADHD page has the details.
How often are follow-up visits, and can they be by telehealth?+
Monthly follow-up visits are required to stay on treatment. Each one is 15 minutes and costs $136. They can be in person or by telehealth, as long as you are in Florida at the time of a telehealth visit.
What should I bring to my first visit?+
A photo ID, a list of the medications you take now, and any prior ADHD diagnosis or records.
Will I be prescribed medication?+
Not necessarily, and no medication is promised in advance. Treatment may include medication options, which may include stimulant and non-stimulant medications, chosen with your provider, along with non-medication strategies. Whether medication is right for you, and which one, is decided with your provider after your evaluation.
What is E-FORCSE, and why do you check it?+
E-FORCSE is Florida's prescription drug monitoring program, a state database of controlled substance prescriptions. Florida law requires prescribers to check it before prescribing a controlled substance, and we check it before prescribing one.
I was diagnosed with ADHD before. What should I do?+
Bring your records to your first visit and your provider will review them. Your first visit with us is still a new patient visit, in person at our Tampa clinic.
Who will I see?+
Your visits are with Morgan Colee, PA, a physician assistant who works under the supervision of Dr. Jose Diaz, MD, our Medical Director.
Can I talk to someone before I book?+
