Transition was good. Everyone was friendly, helpful and caring
Support
Your spinal team will be able to give you support and advice to help you manage your condition. They can help by:
- Teaching you about your condition and ways that it might be managed or treated.
- Helping you understand the impact it might have in your life.
- Making sure you know about the support networks available.
You can contact the paediatric spinal team on 0117 3428812. If you have moved to adult services you might find that your consultant is the same but other members of your team and the location of appointments has changed. The secretary for your consultant will be able to help identify who in the team is able to support you and respond to any questions. They can be contacted on 0117 4141618 (Mr Harding and Mr Morris), 0117 414 1620 (Mr Landham) and 0117 414 1619 (Mr Upadhyay).
Alongside your healthcare team there are both local and national sources of support. You can find out more on the links below:
