Good Endo East Gloucestershire/West Oxford area.

[TraceyLE]

Hi all, does anyone know a good Endo in the Gloucestershire/Oxfordshire area. I have got the list from the site but there are none in my area, the nearest is London.

I am hoping to grovel with my doctor for a referral and would love one to suggest.

Many thanks

Tracey

Tracey - have you checked out the Hospitals section of this site? You can look at your local Endo Dept to see if anyone has rated it.

Hi Tracey, I see a wonderful one at Leamington Spa, but I pay to see her, not for anything else. £160 first visit, I think and £90 after. Very access

able and loves patients and does not just go on blood tests.Likes patient input.

If you want details click on my name to send a PM and I will send you all the info.

Best wishes,

Jackie

I thought Jackie would have given you the details, just wanted to give you another thumbs up. There are quite a number of others from the forum who see this lady after all the recommendations she's getting!

Whatever happens you'll have no worries about her not listening to you or talking to you as though you're a moron. Not only does she know her stuff, she's a really lovely lady. Good luck.

Is this Dr SB?

[Jackie in reply to Ladyofthemanor]

Yes

[Kangagirl in reply to Ladyofthemanor]

Yes. We have recently moved (which is great) but now unfortuntely too far away to see her (which is not so great)

Hi Jackie, Would you be kind enough to send details of the consultant/doctor that you see in Leamington Spa. Needing some support and advice with all this nightmare - all 4 of the GP's I have seen at my health centre are utterly blinkered by standard protocols (and not one of them seems to be over the age of 12 !!!!! )

Thanks

Hi I will do a PM now.

Hi Giagal I saw her 10 days ago and it's nice to speak to someone who listens to you. She has written to my doc on the previous occasion and will this time, but I was never contacted by them to apply her recommendations. I buy my own and pay for my own tests when I can afford it.

I wouldn't worry about getting t3 tests prior to your visit as she was only interested in my tsh which I was surprised about.

Good luck.
