Dr Jeffery Kimber 2016-05-19 Person 4 5 0

I was referred to the neurology department in East Surrey Hospital because I have Ehlers Danlos type 3 (hypermobility) and am experiencing really painful headaches when I strain, cough, etc. I know there's two conditions commonly related to EDS one called CCI and the other chiari malformation... both of those have some symptoms I've been experiencing, so I thought it best to speak to my GP... see what he thought. I was referred and after waiting 4-5 months I got an appointment. That was last night... I went in as usual... nervous, mistreating and assuming it wouldn't lead to any help but Dr. Kimber was really polite, friendly and he explained everything. After discussing my diagnoses and the symptoms I've been given an appointment for an MRI. I assumed it would take ages but I've already got my letter and it'll be in 10 days. Just want to thank this doctor for listening and being so friendly. He also went out of his way to recommend to my GP I go to a hypermobility clinic which might lead to genetic... they might not accept me but hey... it's a chance and that's more than I've gotten in the past! I would definitely recommend him.
