Paget's Association Centres of Excellence

2 Replies

The Paget’s Association, the only charity in the UK dedicated to Paget’s Disease of Bone, is keen to improve patient access to appropriate specialist care and address the apparent lack of understanding of this common bone condition. In November 2015 the Association introduced an award to recognise hospital and university departments which demonstrate excellence in both the treatment of Paget’s disease and research into the condition. In this, the first ever award of its kind, UK centres have been recognised as Paget's Association Centres of Excellence. Details available by following this link to our website:

HelloPagets Assoc,

I am wondering whether it is better to consult a bone specialist rather than a rheumatologist-can you advise,please.?

in reply to london1234

A metabolic bone clinic or rheumatologist will help you. An orthopaedic consultant deals with things like surgery on bone and hip replacements and does not deal with Paget's disease. I hope that helps.
