My experience of Dr Kirkham has been extremely positive. I found him to be a good listener, compassionate, non judgemental, and knowledgeable. I elected to receive my rheumatology care from Guys Hospital due to the excellent service offered to patients like me who have a mixture of Sjögren's,RA and fibromyalgia. I recently received a steroid injection into my shoulder joint. This was delivered with great skill and little pain in comparison with the excruciating pain I felt at my local hospital. Furthermore on my first assessment app at Guys, with Dr Kirkham, he immediately realised there was a problem with my hip joints and referred me for X-rays and orthopaedics. I had complained on numerous occasions to my local rheumatology dept in Eastbourne but little interest was shown. Apparently I need hip replacements now. I think Dr Kirkham is an experienced research based Dr who does listen to his patients and will try to improve their quality life through his advice and medical interventions. I am very pleased to be under his care.
