Consultant East Yorkshire

Hi allI have EPGA and just moved to Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Have managed to register and see(!) a GP who has referred me to a consultant in the area, but although that was early September have not had any contact. Although this is not a surprise, obviously I do need the supervision of a consultant.

Does anyone know who or where I might be referred to and have any info??

Thanks in advance

Are you able to contact your new GP for more information?

Most waiting times in East Yorks are rather long - did the GP appreciate the complexities of managing EGPA? They struggle with GCA - had they even heard of EGPA? And realise that this would probably need to be an emergency referral?
