The RNOH myeloma service
Myeloma patients with spinal implications have been treated for a long time within our spinal deformity unit.
We are proud to have launched our international myeloma service, which aims to be a high quality service following the latest international guidelines in the treatment of myeloma.
The patient pages provide information on what you can expect when you are seen at the RNOH. We have outlined the pathway for you. Myeloma UK is the official organisation for myeloma where you can find further information.
Also, we explain what type of treatment you may get if your spine is affected by myeloma and how we will follow up on your treatment to ensure you get back to your normal activities.
The information is here as a guide for patients and professionals and will provide useful links to relevant information.
Referrals:
The RNOH receives clinical referrals to our specialist, tertiary neuro-musculoskeletal services from primary, secondary, and tertiary care institutions regarding both NHS and private patients.
To make a tertiary referral to RNOH you will need to register for an account on EpicCare Link. Please follow the instructions here.
If you are making an urgent referral out of hours or over the weekend, please can you call the RNOH and ask for the spinal/orthopaedic on-call reg, via the Main Gate switchboard on 020 3947 0100.
General Practitioners should continue to refer to RNOH using the UK Electronic Referral System (ERS)- please see below.
