👍Following my breast screening, I received a call back and was amazed with the number of professionals I saw at the clinic, all of whom were caring and considerate. Positive result of invasive tumour which led to surgical appointment with Mr Elseedawy, then surgery and post op care.

Due to NHS Tayside not having the medical staff in place I was referred to NHS Grampian for radiotherapy. It would have been better if the treatment could have been in Tayside but we managed.  

The entire team in Ninewells and in ward 8 PRI and especially Cara (Liaison Nurse) and Patsy, Consultant Radiographer in NHS Tayside who supported me every step. I can't thank them all enough.
