Hello @jessie1990
I did an internet search, as did @jessie1990, and found St. Vincent's University Hospital, which is a NETs Center of Excellence. Here is a link to their website, https://www.stvincents.ie/departments/national-centre-for-neuroendocrine-tumours-net/
As @californiazebra mentioned in her post, NET specialists often consult with your local oncologist to support your treatment. I drive an hour from my home to a university medical center in my area for consultations.
I look forward to hearing from you again. Will you continue posting updates and let me know how you are doing?

Hello Ireland. I just googled and found this:
Yes, Ireland has neuroendocrine tumor (NET) specialists through a national center and regional satellite centers. The National Centre for Neuroendocrine Tumours is located at St. Vincent's University Hospital in Dublin, with satellite services in Cork and Galway.
National Centre: The St. Vincent's University Hospital in Dublin serves as the main hub.
Regional Centers: There are additional experts at the Mercy University Hospital in Cork and Galway University Hospital.
How to access: If a NET is suspected, you should ask your GP or consultant for a referral to the NETs Clinic at St. Vincent's.
I hope you can get a referral.
