Abstract

Neurodiversity is a term used to describe the variation in how our brains process information and how we experience the world around us. It is estimated that 15–20% of the population are neurodivergent. This includes individuals diagnosed with neurodevelopmental conditions such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism, as well as a range of specific learning differences, such as dyslexia, dyspraxia and dyscalculia, and other associated conditions, including epilepsy and Tourette syndrome. As awareness of neurodiversity is increasing, so are the numbers of healthcare workers who are recognising their own neurodivergence. The general practice workforce is no exception.
