Dr Hossein Rostamipour

Dr Hossein Rostamipour is a Consultant Psychiatrist with over 13 years of experience in both the NHS and private practice. In 2022, he founded Eton Psychiatrists with a clear vision: to create a boutique, specialist neuro-affirmative practice dedicated to mental well-being.

His practice is built on experience gained from some of Europe's most prestigious mental health and academic institutions. In addition to leading Eton Psychiatrists, he holds the following positions:

1. Consultant Psychiatrist at the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM): He works part-time in the Brain Health Academic-Clinic of the IoPPN at King's College London, a research unit pioneering the early diagnosis of cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's.
2. Visiting Consultant at the Priory Mental Health Hospital in Roehampton.

Dr Rostamipour has diverse experience assessing and treating hundreds of patients with ADHD and Autism each year, enabling him to manage complex cases and develop bespoke, safe, and optimised management plans.

His work is driven by a deep passion for understanding and supporting neurodiversity, particularly ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). He has seen firsthand how often these conditions remain undiagnosed, especially in high-functioning individuals. Many people struggle for years with symptoms such as low mood, anxiety, addiction, or relationship difficulties, often without responding to traditional treatment because the root cause of their challenges has been missed.

Dr Rostamipour’s philosophy is that a successful assessment is not a rigid checklist but a supportive, collaborative, and flexible process tailored to each patient’s unique life and circumstances. He views a diagnosis not merely as a label, but as a profound turning point—a moment of clarity that empowers individuals on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and well-being.

Approach to Assessment & Treatment

He conducts holistic, nuanced evaluations that include essential screening for co-occurring conditions. This comprehensive approach is vital for creating a clear diagnostic picture and ensuring that treatment goals are realistic and effective.

Treatment under his care is viewed as a collaborative journey. After completing all mandatory safety and health screenings based on NICE guidelines, he explores all available options. He regards medication as a valuable tool that can provide a stable foundation, allowing more effective engagement with neurodivergent-affirming therapy, coaching, and other holistic supports.

His ultimate goal is to help patients understand their strengths, navigate their challenges, and build lives that are not only manageable but truly fulfilling.

Areas of Specialised Expertise

While Dr Rostamipour has extensive experience across inpatient and outpatient services, his main focus is on complex neurodiversity. He has specialist expertise in supporting:

1. High-Achieving Individuals: Whose success and accomplishments may have masked lifelong neurodivergent struggles.
2. Women with Complex Neurodiversity: Including navigating ADHD in combination with hormonal disorders, eating disorders, and providing dedicated care during pregnancy and the postnatal period. His additional training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology informs this area of his practice.
3. Combined ADHD and Autism Assessment: Specialising in diagnosis for people with comorbid anxiety, depression, and personality difficulties.
4. Older Adults: He has a special interest in cognitive disorders and in identifying undiagnosed ADHD and Autism later in life.

Dr Rostamipour is committed to supporting individuals on their journey toward self-understanding and a more fulfilling life.
