Dr Dinesh Kannan

LONDON, UK, 2 July 2026

NeuroCheck Pro, the UK health technology company building a digital platform for ADHD and autism assessment, today announced the appointment of Dr Dinesh Kannan as its Founding Clinician.

Dr Dinesh is a Consultant Psychiatrist and Clinical Lead for Psychiatry at Medacs Healthcare, with a postgraduate clinical background spanning King’s College London (MSc Applied Neuroscience) and the University of Leeds (PGDip Psychiatry), and Membership of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (MRCPsych). His certification set spans the full clinical range: Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, 2nd Edition (ADOS-2) training (Hogrefe) and the King’s College London “Understanding ADHD” programme, diplomas in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, accreditation as an EMDR Therapist (EMDR Association), and International Affiliate status with CADDRA, the Canadian ADHD Resource Alliance.

He joins NeuroCheck Pro as the company builds out its clinician-led pilot programme. In the Founding Clinician role, Dr Dinesh will help shape how assessments are run, sign off on the tools used, and chair the company’s Clinical Advisory function alongside the founder.

NeuroCheck Pro’s bet is simple: a software platform that lets NHS clinicians run ADHD and autism assessments designed to align with NICE guidance, with rigour, clear records, and time back in their week. Dinesh has spent his career on the receiving end of a system that is overstretched. He is the person you want in the room when you are designing a clinical tool that has to work on a Tuesday morning in a busy general practice, not in a demo.

The conventional ADHD and autism pathway is fragmented, admin-heavy and slow, which disadvantages the very patients it’s meant to serve. NeuroCheck Pro is a first-of-its-kind neurodevelopmental assessment platform that combines a patient-facing app with a clinician-facing electronic record system. It brings the whole assessment journey into one connected digital pathway. NeuroCheck Pro keeps patients at the centre and clinicians in control: patients can tell their story with clarity and comfort, while clinicians receive the structured evidence they need to make safer, sharper and more meaningful clinical decisions.
