Hughes specialist at London Bridge Hospital?

[AvsG]

Over the past 5 years I have been seen by Prof Hughes at London Bridge Hospital. Due to his retirement I am unable to see him again. Can you recommend the next best specialist to deal with Hughes Syndrome?

Hi

You asked the same question a few months back and you had many good responses. Why not revisit that post for suggestions.

Hope you get sorted soon

Hi, yes I just realised that after I put my question out. I'm afraid my brain fog has been quite bad and I'm not thinking straight 🙂

I would ask Prof. Hughes for a referral.

Dr David D'Cruz took over from him as Director at St Thomas Hospital Lupus Clinic. He was trained by Prof. Hughes, as most, if not all, at the London Bridge.

With good wishes,

Ros

Thank you for your reply Ros. I spoke to London Bridge today and they recommended a few specialists. Prof D'Cruz didn't have any appointments until end of November. I have made an appointment with Dr Kaul beginning of next month. I was reassured he could help me with my condition 😊

I am in the care of Dr Kaul on the NHS and he is a lovely man who really cares about his patients and I am delighted with the treatment I have had from his clinic.

My friend sees Dr Kaul at London Bridge and thinks he is excellent. My friend is an unusual case but Dr Kaul has been able to cope well and would recommend him. I think you made the right choice xx

Thank you! This is very reassuring 😊
