UK Hypermobility ClinicsAt most hospitals 'hypermobility' is dealt with under 'rheumatology'. The following addresses are of hospitals where there is an established interest in hypermobility. Much is being done to encourage interest in the subject in rheumatology departments around the country. Please note: the following information is for patients to forward to their own doctor - please do not telephone the clinic directly. We have already had a number of complaints from the clinics with regard to patients telephoning the clinics directly and any further abuse of the information below will result in the removal of this page from the web site. >>Find out about a new service for complex EDS cases here<< Adult’s & Adolescent’s Clinic Professor Rodney Grahame/Dr Hana Kazkaz Children’s Clinic* Sue Maillard Adult Clinic Dr Tim Jenkinson Children and Adult’s Clinic** Professor William Ferrell Adult’s Rehabilitation Clinic*** Dr Helen Cohen/Dr Roger Wolman *Referrals to the Children’s Hypermobility Clinic at Great Ormond Street are by a Consultant; no GP referrals will be accepted.
