Not strictly family but have found in the past there's a wealth of knowledge about eczema in the family room. Have finally decided to take advantage of private healthcare insurance we get through husband's work, and get my chronic eczema seen to. I've seen a few paediatric dermatologists for my son, but now need an adult one! thought worth checking on here to see if anyone's had experience of a good one - am sure someone posted about their husband's eczema not that long ago and they were pondering this option.

If you are with the Forest Hill Rd GP Practice I would try and get an appointment with Dr McCall who is a dermatology specialist GP, she will undoubtedly be able to give you a private referral (which most private health insurers require) to a dermatologist who specialises in eczema. You may find you also need an allergists depending on the nature of your condition.


Good luck!

My eczema has been terrible in the past.

A 10 or 11 years ago I felt I had to be seen right away and could'nt wait the then 12-16 weeks for a referral and went private. Lovely lady at Kings College Hospital. After the first consultation she transferred me to NHS side. Eczema resolved for 6 years after two consultations.

4 or 5 years ago another flare up and given UV light treatment. Worked a treat and only recently has the excema given me a littel grief.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
    • We found a recommendation for Geek Electrics on a here after we wanted to have a electrical inspection of a property we are buying.
