I have been in touch with thyroid Uk and they have sent me a large list of endos but it appears at first hand that most of them seem to specialise in diabetes. I don’t mind travelling if it’s going to be beneficial to me but as I’m in the north west I don’t particularly think a trip to Cornwall is on the cards :p, so does any of you lovely people have any experience with a private consultant and if so, who did you use?

Hi
I've never used a private endo but in these covid times many doctors are doing zoom calls or telephone consults so location isn't an issue. Probably cheaper than a face to face as well. I'm guessing they can prescribe and order any necessary tests etc.
