Friend Probably Suffering With GCA (Me again!)

Hello Everyone

Thank you all so so much for your excellent help and support. I am passing on all your useful information to my friend which is gratefully received.

Her GP rang her yesterday to say that Dr. Vinodh Devakumar is not taking on any more patients who live out of area so they will have to find a local Rheumatologist 😫. Does anyone have any recommendations for a Rheumatologist in the Birkenhead/Liverpool area?

Kind regards to you all

Valerie
