I'm due my appointment in London on Monday, which is very long awated. I'm very nervous but also excited. I'm seeing dr D'cruz. Has anybody else seen this doctor and if so how did you find it? Thanks

I see Dr D'Cruz, he is amazing, very kind and caring and he really listens to you.

I spent years trying to get a good dr and Dr D'Cruz sorted me out in minutes.

I love him to bits

Good luck

Put yourself in his hands and you will not go wrong...without him and another doctor i would not be here to day. More power to his mind and hands.

This doctor is a good send and knows what he is talking about he specialises in lupus and Hughes and I see him for both those things. He is very special in the work he does and im glad that he is the one that treats me because I know that what ever I tell him will get sorted and it will get sorted out so quickly you cant put a foot wrong with this guy.

Hi Charlie. I am also seeing Dr D'Cruz on Monday at St Thomas's. I am travelling down on Sunday evening. What time is your appt? Mine is at 10am. I am in a big electric wheelchair so if you see me please come and say hi. I can't wait either!

Best wishes Monica

Hi that's really cool. My appointment is at 12pm so 2 hours after you. Do you think you will still be there at that time? I have no idea how long these appointments take. If you see me also say hi ill be with my partner who is shorter then me, I have dark hair which I wear down. That would be nice to meet someone who is on here to. :)

Hi Charlie, I will still be around. My sister is meeting me as she lives in London, and after the appt we will go to the inside Cafe - think it is AMT - like a Costa but independent. Will look out for you if you come in for a coffee! I don't know how long the appts are either but however long it will be so worth it.

I was recommended to Dr D'Cruz by Prof Hughes as I couldn't afford to see him privately and I thought it would be a long wait, but only about 5 weeks so fantastic. Monica

He's a trustee of our charity so I'm biased, but he really is a wonderful doctor as well as a leading light in the field of research too #hardworker

Oh is he? That's good as this site has helped me a lot. I'm just now trying to figure out if its walking distance from Waterloo station to st Thomas or if its easier to drive. :/

Hi when we go to st Thomas we get the tube to Westminster station, it's just across the bridge from the hospital entrance. My walking ability is quite limited, but I can just about manage it if I take it slow.

Hope all goes well for you tomorrow.
