Halina is an internationally renowned Consultant Rheumatologist based both at University College Hospital and The London Clinic. I first got to know her when I was training in orthopaedic surgery at UCH and she was already a leader in her field back then. She has developed a very high level of expertise in the management of metabolic bone disorders, including osteoporosis and vitamin D deficiency. She has published several research papers on her areas of interest and is currently supervising a PhD student with her ongoing research. She combines her knowledge and clinical expertise with a very nice bedside manner. All the patients I have referred to her over the years speak very highly of her and I have no hesitation in recommending her to my patients.
