I was diagnosed in August 2021 with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma and had to go for a Bone Marrow Biopsy.
The nurse and Dr I met for my procedure were so friendly and made me feel at ease immediately. I was informed at all times as to what was happening. I did not at any time feel apprehensive as I thought I would do.
Was delighted to be told I tolerated the biopsy well. It's thanks to the staff on that occasion.
