I was diagnosed with prostate cancer approximately 3 years ago. The care and treatment I received from the Specialists, the Radiography team and all the support personnel is second to none. The aftercare has been excellent. Yesterday I was told that we had beaten the cancer and the ongoing monitoring would continue with blood tests every six months and consultation on a yearly basis. I wish to thank everybody concerned for giving me back my life.
