How can I find out if anyone has seen a particular private endocrinologist in Oxford?

[Katkin1]

I can have an appointment tomorrow but am not sure how sympathetic towards thyroid he is but it is listed as one of his areas of expertise (amongst others). He is not on Louise's list. How can I find out if anyone has been to him please without mentioning his name (or can I)?

If you go to the top of the page and use the "hospital" section you can then put in the hospital this man works in and see if anyone on here has had dealings with him and what they thought.

Alternatively you could just google his name and see what comes up. If he has written medical papers on thyroid illness or is highly thought of in this field it will come to light.

You can also email [e-mail] and ask. She may have his name.

If anyone knows an answer to this question, please private message by clicking on Katkin's name.

Hi Katkin1

If you have no luck with this guy or decide against it, there is a private endo in Leamington Spa who is a diabetes and thryoid specialist and is very good, very knowledgable, open minded and sympathetic to our needs. She was recommended to me by a fellow sufferer on TUK and we have both since recommended her to others. If you would like further detals, please feel free to pm me. Good luck.

Thank you Kanga. Will see how I get on today. May PM you. Leamington Spa is about two hours away from me, but will go if necessary.

Best wishes
