Rob is a Private Adult ADHD Psychiatrist. He has a wealth of experience working in Adult ADHD and mental health. Rob worked in the NHS for 20 years, and as a consultant since 2008. He worked in community, acute day hospital and prison mental health settings for several years.
In 2011, Rob developed and launched the first Leeds NHS Adult ADHD service, and was clinical lead until 2022. During this time, he led a successful service and has not only gained a reputation for his expertise and clinical skills, but also for his passion and commitment to raising awareness of ADHD across social media and in local and national newspaper and magazine publications. He has also provided regular ADHD training across healthcare settings and also other areas including the criminal justice system.
Rob worked part-time in private practice alongside his NHS work from 2012, before taking the decision in 2022 to work solely in private practice in Leeds, Yorkshire.
Rob prides his work in providing holistic person-centred care which is reliable, responsive, non-judgemental and collaborative.
Rob focuses primarily on each individual's needs, taking a broad approach to interventions with consideration of medication, lifestyle, coaching and therapy interventions. As well as his expertise in prescribing medication according to the latest evidence, he has developed skills in both ADHD coaching and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Rob sees ACT as an effective therapy that can help individuals manage the challenges of living with ADHD and/or other mental health difficulties more effectively and at the same time support them to create a rich and meaningful values-based life. Dr Baskind invites primary care colleagues to engage in a shared care agreement for the continuation of medication.
Please note that private medical insurance is not accepted.
A GP referral letter is not necessary but is recommended. It is advisable to speak to your GP before a referral, especially if medication is likely to be an option if a diagnosis is confirmed to explore whether the GP will be agreeable to ongoing prescribing once medication is stabilised.
