It's important to get checked if you are struggling folks, and there are plenty of resources on campuses for these things.

(he didn't get ignored for ADHD, he got ignored for tinnitus and he's afraid he will repeat the experience with ADHD).

I also strongly recommend changing doctors if the one he has downplays his concerns. Those doctors should have no clients, but the reality is that most doctors do not accept new clients, so he may be stuck with the current one. He could also report the doctor for this behaviour.
