"I have visited the fontwell oncology day ward..."

About: Dorset County Hospital

I went to Fortuneswell ward for cancer. The nurse she gave me my treatment answered my questions and supplied me with details to take to my dentist as I have drugs which mean I need to be careful going and having things done. I have injections into my stomach which are painful. Erica was so very kind and gentle and encouraging. I was not having a good day and she with her smile, listening ear made things easier for me. I am most grateful.

I was also helped by a practitioner offering reflexology. I am in a lot of pain and have been suffering from constipation due to my drugs. This non invesive treatment can be very helpful and relaxing in times of stress. I left in less pain than when I came in and she gave me more information to try and overcome my problem.

Thank you so much for making my day better than it was.
