ME Service/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Service (ME/CFS Service) - Sussex-wide
We are the Sussex-wide ME/CFS Service. The service is made up of experienced Allied Health Care Professionals, a medical practitioner, a psychologist and administrators.
Our service is primarily for people with mild to moderate ME/CFS. We provide predominantly virtual treatment for patients within Sussex. This has ensured that the service is more accessible for our patients. The service seeks to assist patients with diagnosis, assessment, therapy, advice, signposting and treatment for adult patients affected by ME/CFS, using evidence based treatment programmes and practices following NICE guidelines.
Our aim is help you with learning and self-management strategies. Please contact your GP if you would like to be referred into our service. We want to provide a service that is helpful and accommodating to patients affected by ME/CFS. We therefore encourage patients to share their views and engage with the team to support service development.
Please email us on SC-TR.CFSMESussex-WideService@nhs.net with any feedback.
