I am moving to Lincolnshire in the new year and was wondering if anyone has any experiences with either Pilgrim Hospital Boston or Lincoln County Hospital ....

Many Thanks :-)

The rheumatologist I see in Peterborough has clinics in Boston and Lincoln. He is very nice and speaks highly of the rheumatology team in Boston. (Where I see him has no team, just him, so support is limited!)

The present Rheumi at Pilgrim is very good. Best wishes with the move.

I go to Lincoln County Hospital for my treatment. My consultant is Dr Chikura and another one Dr Joshi. It is very good. I even got to go on a biologic treatment even though my DAS28 score for being put forward for Biologics was slightly under. They have good support teams too. They have a nurse helpline available, and good support from a RA lead physiotherapist, and amazing Occupational Therapist team, they made my compression gloves for me, but above all I called them my angels, they really talked to me and listened and went above the call of duty. Hope that helps and welcome to Lincolnshire. We have amazing night skies here :)

Thanks so much for your reply...... I was very scared about changing hospitals and now you have reassured me..... Can't wait to move... Hate London! BTW I am on Benepali Biologics too :-)
