In this case there is absolutely zero conflict of interest I can assure you of that. The only conflict of interest he has is making people understand the severity of actual ADHD in adults and in children and how you don't grow out of it and how it can 100,000% ruin your life as it did to his brother.
He's also a psychologist and not a psychiatrist, so take that for what it's worth.
