NHS England Specialists Centres

Since 2022 NHS England have commissioned 9 regional specialist centres for the treatment and care of patients with TTP.

The 9 centres are based across 11 hospital sites in England.  

Every patient with a diagnosis of TTP should be linked in with a specialist centre for TTP. In some cases patients may have routine check-ups with their local consultant but they would still be listed with the specialist centre.
