Compiling a List of NHS Fibro Clinics
Do you attend an NHS clinic or course for Fibro patients? If so, we'd like to know about it!
There are quite a few NHS Fibro clinics around the UK, often set up by rheumatology departments in NHS hospitals, but we rarely get to hear about many of them. Here at FibroAction we're trying to compile a list of all Fibro specific services available on the NHS. However, there isn't a central database of Fibro specific NHS services and getting information from individual PCTs can be a slow process. So if you know of a NHS service - e.g. a clinic or course - specifically for Fibro patients, that is not listed below, or if you spot anything incorrect in the list below, please contact us with details.
Please note that, at this stage, we're only looking for information on clinics or other services (e.g. condition management courses) that are just for Fibro patients, not general services such as a department that treats Fibro patients mixed in with other patients.
NHS Fibro-specific clinics & services:
Guy's Hospital, London
Run by Prof John Davies.
Poole Hospital
Run by Dr Selwyn Richards
Salisbury Hospital
Run by Dr Richard Smith. Physio, OT & hydrotherapy available in department.
Bolton Hospital
Run by Dr K Adams. Multi-disciplinary course available for Fibro sufferers.
