Mum drove me and came to the appointment. She asked me where I wanted to go. I chose to be dropped off at the pub where I ...

Recommend a London neurologist?

Hello, Iโ€™m new here. I joined so I could ask whether anyone with SPMS has found a good neurologist in London? I go to the National at Queen Square and my neurologist there turned nasty when I asked too many questions. Thanks in advance
