Nerve Injury Patient Workshops
Patient days and workshops are designed to help patients share their burden and to develop group cognitive behavioural therapy for trigeminal nerve injuries. We aim to have 10-12 patients attend these sessions at Kings College Hospital. You have to be consulted first before we can book you onto these patient days.
