Hi macwalker,

If you phone or e mail the helpline they should be able to advise.

Hi there

I see Dr Mohammed Akil at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital who is excellent. I'm sure John Mills will know of others if you contact the helpline as suggested.

All the best

We are in Derbyshire, John has WG and is seen at the hospital in Chesterfield, by a respiratory consultant. The Hallamshire in Sheffield also see patients with Vasculitis. There is also a Rheumatologist at the Derby hospital who sees patients with ANCA associated vasculitis.

If you write to john, John.mills@vasculitis.org.uk he maybe able to help with some advice.

best wishes

Susan
