Do you live in the Borough of Barnet?

I live in the Borough of Barnet and my GP is in the Borough of Barnet. Am currently receiving treatment from tissue viability nurse - my Lymphoedema in both legs and other problems has caused lymphorrhea in both feet. Once this is resolved (hopefully) I feel I need a more rounded lymphoedema service to help me but there doesn't seem to be anything in Barnet. I am disabled and don't drive so would need patient transport or minicabs. Any ideas? Thanks. Am very worried indeed.

You could ask your GP to refer you to the nearest Lymphoedema clinic - You may need to go to another part of London.

I don't know how the patient transport works in London (I am in Scotland) - you should ask the practice manager.
