You can phone or email the helpline.

Best of luck! I live in Dundee, so a bit outside the Highlands. I know there are vasculitis specialists in Dundee, and Aberdeen, but don't personally know of the Highlands area. The helpline should be able to help though.

There is a centre for Vasculitis and Lupus in Edinburgh which has quite a wide catchment area. They have literally put me back on my feet.

Hi… I live in the Highlands and attend an excellent vasculitis clinic at Aberdeen . They have several vasculitis specialists there . They have been integral in my care of CNSV since I moved up here in 2013 . However because of the Covid situation much of the consultation since March 2020 has been done remotely. They are based at the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Hope this helps .

I live in Dumfries & Galloway but they have constantly been in touch with specialists in the central belt and take advice from them, so being in remoter parts of Britain isn't a negative.

Thank you, can I ask which department has been in contact please? I’m only being seen by renal so I’m wondering if I should be under another department….🤔
