Hi. I live in Derby and have heard good things about BOT Hosp if that helps at all.

Hi there. I am not familiar with your area but don't be afraid to ask your doctor to explain things to you. I was and still am being treated very well wherever I go for tests and treatments.

You'll be fine.

All the best.

Hi I am under Dr Nisar at Burton and can only say good things about him and his team. I was diagnosed in November with Scleroderma and Raynauds. He is extremely thorough with his investigations with a good mulitdisciplinary team (physios, OT's and specialist nurses) and will look after you well. Good luck.
