Drew Provan retired a couple or more years ago.

I got an appointment with Dr Drew Provan in BMI London healthcare, the independent hospital in London, is he the same doctor that you refer to or there are two hematology doctors with the same name in London? I would appreciate your help and advise as I am confused.

He must have retired from St Barts hospital. If you can see him then i would suggest you do. He is the top guy.

Sounds very much like the same Dr Provan. Ask them if he was a Senior Lecturer in Haematology at Bart Hospital. If it is Drew you have got one of the world's leading authorities on ITP and the treatment there of.
