We have compiled a list of clinics staffed by NHS doctors and nurses with an interest in PoTS and who are supportive of PoTS UK and evidence based medicine.
Many clinicians on our list also have private practices and this information is readily available on the internet. We strongly recommend doing your own research before making any appointments.
PoTS UK cannot offer recommendations for private practices. You are likely to need a referral from your GP (or occasionally from another specialist) in order to see an NHS or private consultant.
The information in this healthcare list is for reference purposes only. It is not intended as a tool for verifying the credentials, qualifications, or abilities of any healthcare professional listed. Inclusion in the list does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation of any healthcare professional or hospital; nor does the omission imply disapproval.
If you would like to have your NHS service listed, please complete this short form.
We are currently only able to list doctors and nurses who work in NHS clinics and have experience of managing PoTS patients. YOU must be able to accept referrals for patients with suspected PoTS (unless working in primary care), assess, diagnose and manage them.
