hi

I am looking for a local private endo who also still works in the NHS near to where I live. I already have a private endo in London who has diagnosed me with secondary hypothyroidism. He is brilliant but GP won’t accept his diagnosis even though he is highly qualified and highly regarded in the field. It has been suggested that I try and get a private endo who still does some NHS work nearer to home as GP may accept their diagnosis and recommendations??

Please PM me if you can help as stuck in private system for nearly a year trying to transfer back to the NHS!

You can name a doctor when asking for feedback on the forum, but replies need to be via private message, as requested by Kayakingkim.

A list of thyroid -friendly endos (NHS and private) can be requested by contacting Thyroid UK:tukadmin@thyroiduk.org

With any recommendation that you get, it is advisable to complete further research yourself before making a decision.
