Hi does anyone on here have any experience of the neurologists at Addenbrooks Hospital Cambridge UK in regards to RLS ? I am due to go there for the first time in a couple of months and it would be good to know if there is anyone there who specialises in this area. Many thanks

Thank you for your reply Retren, I asked for Addenbrookes precisely because of that reason. I have no doubt at all that the staff are of a high caliber. I am aware though that most consultants Neurologists have their own special area of interest / expertise and wondered if anyone on this site knew, which, if any of the consultants had RLS as an area they had interest in. I had thought that Papworth had finally joined up with Addenbrookes and had moved their sleep centre to the site. I now know this has not happened. I am wondering if I should have requested Papworth as RLS is treated at the sleep centre. I guess the neurologist will refer me there if they feel that it is more suitable. When My father was under Papworth in 2006/7 we were told Papworth was due to move to the Addenbrookes site by 2012. 5 years later and it seems like this has still not happened.
