I provide adult ADHD treatment in Nashville

I am William Conway, MD, a licensed physician in Nashville, TN, providing care as Adult ADHD doctor in Nashville

Adult ADHD rarely exists in isolation. For medically complicated adults, adult ADHD is often one of several chronic diseases requiring treatment. In my practice, ADHD is treated during the same visit as the rest of your chronic illnesses. For medically complicated patients, treating all chronic illnesses in one coordinated visit reduces fragmentation and improves stability.

My practice will remain small to benefit you.

Why Internal Medicine Matters in Adult ADHD

Medical complexity is common in patients with ADHD. Diabetes, hypertension, obesity, sleep apnea, and coronary artery disease frequently coexist. Modern internal medicine provides a wide range of treatments for both common and uncommon medical illnesses.

I remain up to date with current internal medicine treatments and guidelines. I am dedicated to understanding your preferences, your budget, and your circumstances.

The American College of Physicians supports coordinated care within a medical home for medically complex patients. This practice functions as a medical home in Nashville, including adults treated for ADHD.

I have treated adult ADHD in medically complex patients for many years within my Nashville internal medicine practice.

Adult ADHD within Addiction Medicine

I have several patients on buprenorphine (Suboxone) who also have adult ADHD.

To manage patients with both opioid use disorder and Adult ADHD safely, I completed advanced continuing medical education at Harvard Medical School in adult ADHD. I applied structured addiction medicine safeguards and Tennessee regulations to stimulant management.

My experience treating ADHD in patients with addiction histories has been careful, structured, and stable. My patients have benefited from stimulant medication given on the same visit as buprenorphine. The same controlled substance safeguards used in addiction medicine are applied to ADHD when appropriate.

Adult ADHD patients with addiction history in Nashville also deserve a medical home.

Continuity and Long-Term Stability of Your Attention and Focus

Adult ADHD does not resolve with a prescription. It requires longitudinal oversight and ongoing adjustment. In a stable medical home, patients receive consistent, effective care for years. ADHD management is not episodic or reactive. It is structured, scheduled, and longitudinal.

ADHD care in this practice is physician-led, structured, and integrated within primary care internal medicine with sub-specialty qualification in addiction medicine.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do you prescribe stimulant medication (Adderall) for adult ADHD in Nashville?

After a complete evaluation, within a structured program guided by Tennessee regulations, I prescribe Adderall if medically necessary.

Can ADHD be treated if I have hypertension or high blood pressure?

Hypertension includes a spectrum from mild to severe. Treating your hypertension to national targets is best before stimulant treatment is initiated.

Adult ADHD patients on buprenorphine can receive treatment for their ADHD. The treatment must be structured, carefully monitored, and comply with Tennessee regulations.

Is adult ADHD managed long-term or short-term?

Adult ADHD is chronic. Treatment is long term, requiring office visits, medication adjustment, and ongoing physician oversight.

I’ve been with the Conway clinic for close to 2 years and he is my 3rd suboxone doctor. My last doctor passed away and he was amazing, but the Conway clinic staff is also very amazing, they care. Some clinics are money motivated but Dr Conway is not just recovery oriented but he also wants to keep u healthy. If u need MAT or recovery service this is your place, there in no better. This review was 3 years ago and I am still with them and they are still the best recovery clinic. They know your names and your story and don't have to look in a file for it. They are the best, the office ladies are the best of the best as well. Idk where I might be today without them!!

I highly recommend Dr. Conway to anyone looking for a doctor who combines expertise with compassion. Thank you, Dr. Conway, for your outstanding care !  The nurses in the office! The entire experience at Dr. Conway’s office was exceptional—not just because of Dr. Conway himself, but also because of his amazing nursing staff.

I've been seeing Dr conway for a while and also a while before they moved. I've always had great experiences there with Dr conway and all of his staff as well. I definitely recommend to anyone needing addiction treatment.  They've never made me feel judged, or looked down on me for anything. I can't say that about other local treatment clinics I've been too. This has been the only place that's worked for me.
