Dr. Craig Emes MD, Victoria BC

Psychiatrist
ADULT ADHD ASSESSMENT IN BC
Accessible service for British Columbia residents seeking an Adult ADHD Assessment. NO COST is required as all services are fully covered under the BC Medical Services Plan (MSP). Patients are first referred by a primary healthcare provider. Then, after completing a confidential online assessment form, we conveniently meet via telehealth for the assessment. After the assessment, the referring primary healthcare provider immediately receives a detailed consultation report with treatment recommendations. Given the high demand for psychiatrists, Dr. Emes collaborates with the referring primary healthcare provider (or clinic) to ensure patients receive specialized treatment and support, rather than directly providing individual ongoing care.
