Title: Recommend me a Sjogrens specialist in UK please?
Post by: jaygee on May 18, 2009, 02:52:58 PM
Hi - I live in the North West of the Uk and we do have a special rheumy place at a hospital nearby, but don't think there is a specialist for Sjogrens there.  Does anyone know of someone in the UK?  I don't mind travelling and doctor has said she will refer me wherever I like.

Hi jaygee

There are a few Sjoggies in NW England and I'm sure they'll be in touch soon.  Some people have found specialists in London, including Lupus/SjS centres of excellence and research.  Look through old posts and you'll find names and numbers.  The British SjS Association has quite a few medics involved in conferences:  Dr Elizabeth Price and Dr Bowman come to mind.  I'd recommend my rheumy in Brighton but that's probably a bit too far for you to travel!

Take care - Chickpea
