"Thank you to all the staff involved"

Following surgery for breast cancer I received an appointment to attend the Cancer Centre at the City hospital. On arrival I found it quite overwhelming.

I was then introduced to Kate who talked me through, in great detail what was involved. She included possible side effects. I received many leaflets as there was so much information. I then had a scan and measurements were noted for when my radiotherapy commenced. 

I left feeling a lot more relaxed. I then had my bone density measured in Bangor hospital. This was totally painless and carried out by a very friendly and helpful nurse.  A couple of weeks later I commenced my radiotherapy. I can't think of how to explain this apart from it was amazing. Again the friendly staff made this rare experience much easier to deal with.

Following my last treatment I had to see the nurse for a routine examination. I sat for a long time before I discovered that my details had not been forwarded to the different department. The nursing staff were very apologetic although it wasn't there mistake. I was examined immediately. If you have not been approached after 30 mins. ask the staff. I didn't like to ask as it is a very busy unit. 

Thank you to all the staff involved in providing this treatment and running the department.
