ADHD Testing
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can affect focus, impulse control, organization, and daily life, making it challenging to succeed at work, school, or in relationships. At Renew Psychiatry Services, we offer comprehensive ADHD testing to provide an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plan, helping you or your child gain the clarity and support needed to thrive.
What Is ADHD Testing?
ADHD testing is a structured evaluation process designed to assess attention, impulse control, hyperactivity, and executive functioning. At Renew Psychiatry Services, we conduct a thorough assessment that includes a detailed clinical interview, standardized rating scales, and cognitive and behavioral evaluations. For children, we also gather input from parents, teachers, or caregivers to ensure a well-rounded understanding of their symptoms. By taking a comprehensive approach, we can accurately diagnose ADHD and create a personalized treatment plan that supports long-term success in school, work, and daily life.
ADHD Testing with a QbTest
QbTest is a standardized ADHD testing tool that objectively measures core symptoms of ADHD using a combination of attention tasks and motion tracking technology. Unlike traditional assessments that rely on subjective reports, QbTest provides real-time, measurable data on cognitive performance and motor activity.
During the test, the individual completes a 20-minute (for adults) or 15-minute (for children) attention task on a computer while a high-precision camera tracks movements. The results are then compared to a large database of individuals with and without ADHD, giving our clinicians a detailed and unbiased assessment of symptom severity.

How we help at Renew
At Renew Psychiatry Services, we provide a comprehensive and personalized approach to ADHD evaluation and treatment. Our process begins with a virtual psychiatric assessment to understand your symptoms, followed by an in-depth in-office ADHD testing and treatment planning session to ensure an accurate diagnosis. We utilize evidence-based tools to assess attention, impulsivity, and executive functioning while considering additional factors such as genetics and medication compatibility through urine drug screening or GENESIGHT testing when appropriate. Once a diagnosis is established, we develop a customized treatment plan, which may include therapy, medication management, and lifestyle strategies. Our care continues beyond the initial evaluation, with a one-month follow-up visit to monitor progress, make necessary adjustments, and provide ongoing support to help you manage ADHD effectively.
