Thanks for this info... maybe you could also post this on the RLS-UK fb page, for those who have not joined this forum. :)

well i had a look and theres none anywhere near me, and if i wanted to see one of them, it would have to be a private consultation, so not good for me, if you lived in their area, maybe your doctor will refer you, but mine wouldnt, and i couldnt afford to pay, probably ok for folks that live nearby

None near me either. But there is more in this country than i first thought there was.

RLS-UK are looking at the list of RLS experts on this site. We are in the process of preparing a more comprehensive list which will include more NHS funded experts as this seems to be predominantly private clinics. We will post details when it is ready.

Rosie Braidley, Vice Chair, RLS-UK

Hi Ms. Bradley, is there any update on this? Such a list would be very helpful. Thank you.

My doctors would never refer me, :( some say I don't have it others say just to put up with it and stop moaning :( I'm with the worse surgery in my home town and can't change due to strict catchment area rules, my nan suffers from rls too,
