    Probably far too late for you but I have my treatment at West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds. All care has been very thorough and very prompt. The day unit and wards are on a smallish and very friendly purpose built centre very. Because small all staff get to know you well and always greeted with name by everyone.
    Although small the consultant us excellent. Just started current line and drug brand new and still on additional reporting/ monitoring.
    The MDT includes some from Addenbrooks in Cambridge which is large hospital so get best of both worlds.
    Other positive is that if you are admitted the food is all freshly prepared on premises and as good as home cooked!!

    Top myeloma clinics are often found in specialized cancer centers, especially in the U.S. The Mayo Clinic, MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute are among the best, known for advanced treatment options and leading research. Internationally, facilities like the Royal Marsden in the UK and Heidelberg University Hospital in Germany also excel.

    Explore Prazna, a dedicated platform offering resources and support for women’s menstrual health. This NGO prioritizes accessible, reliable information, and community assistance to empower women’s health and well-being.

    My husband has been under the care of the Myeloma specialists at the Bristol Royal Infirmary’s Haemotology and Oncology centre for last 10 years. First for treatment for an isolated plasmacytoma which broke the C2 bone in his neck ( brilliantly repaired by the neurosurgeon at Southmead Hospital where he was an inpatient for over 2 months with transport to the BRI for radiotherapy ) He was then diagnosed with MGUS and monitored at BRI centre at least 4 times a year including regular scans until it progressed to multiple myeloma in March. The Consultants are excellent and are supported by specialist myeloma nurses. We have got to know them really well. Being a large teaching hospital it also has access to MRI and PET scans. Cant recommend it highly enough.
