Shared ambition.
Meet our appointed advisers. We’re growing the panel around a common aim: helping FND Connect’s public information be accurate, useful and grounded in people’s lives.

Dr Ioannis Mavroudis
Consultant Neurologist at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and Honorary Senior Lecturer at the University of Leeds. On this panel he advises whether FND Connect’s public information is clinically fair. The appointment is personal and is not an NHS endorsement.
View profileA role with purpose
Put your experience
to work beyond the clinic.
Your perspective can help shape the information and resources people turn to between appointments.
Make information clearer.
Review explanations of FND, challenge unclear wording and suggest evidence that helps people understand their condition.
Strengthen practical resources.
Contribute to patient information and training, and advise on the scope and limits of tools such as symptom diaries.
Connect the bigger picture.
Identify gaps across disciplines, bring attention to safeguarding and help us recognise where people need clinical support.
The panel’s remit and responsibilities
The advice we are looking for
- Read our public explanations and say where they are fair, unclear or misleading
- Suggest evidence and wording for patient-facing pages
- Comment on training and patient information before it is published
- Advise on the limits of tools such as symptom diaries and appointment notes
- Point out gaps in safeguarding and when someone should seek urgent care
- Help us see the gaps between neurology, general practice, occupational therapy and physiotherapy
How the appointment works
- Membership is personal. It does not mean an employer, a university or the NHS endorses FND Connect.
- The panel does not run FND Connect, and it is not an NHS committee.
- Appointing one clinician is not a claim that every page has been clinically signed off.
- This page is not a way to book a member’s clinic. For your own care, speak with a clinician who knows you.
