Might have more luck if you title the post - finding a Rheumy near ..... (wherever you can travel) or similar - and hope the person who recommended sees it.
Or go through your previous posts ...
When you re-post as DL has suggested, add location and where you are prepared to travel to.

Found this reply -
Hi, I am also in Derbyshire and was diagnosed in September.Because of the long wait to see a rheumatologist, I also paid to see a consultant privately at the Nuffield. I can recommend getting an appointment with Dr Nicholas Raj who said that the initial consultation would not exceed £220. In actual fact he only charged £175 which was the best money I ever spent. I did pay for bloods too but as he is the Head of Rheumatology at Derby Royal, he did say I could have them there on nhs but I just needed to get the right diagnosis and treatment plan ASAP. He was brilliant and after just a thorough physical exam, he knew exactly what I needed and actually contradicted my GP. I did go back the following week and paid privately (because of the long wait) for MRI, ultrasound etc but again he said I could do that at the Royal.
I’m now on his recommended treatment plan via the GP but he has left me an open appointment at the Royal, should I have the need. Would highly recommend.
Wishing you all the best x
