ADHD

My friend has a child whose suspected of having ADHD, is there a place where they can test whether the child is really diagnosed with ADHD?

Until today, I am skeptical on whether the kid just needs more attention and care than suffering from an illness termed as ADHD.

Nevertheless, I am sure a pediatrician can recommend your friend the place to test for it.

HI,
The best place to get this done is The Child Guidance Clinic under HPB located at Second Hospital Ave, #03-01 Health Promotion Board, 168937, No. 3, Singapore 168937. There are specialists there who handle these cases. Both ADD and ADHD are real and frankly the kids cant do anything about it but medicines help. I am speaking from personal experience.
