I have attended this unit for a few years now, and have to say the staff who work there from cleaners,volunteers, doctors and especially the nurses are brilliant each and everyone of them. The staff are often under immense pressure with so many patients to treat, but are always courteous, professional, and always have time for you no matter have busy they are and you can always have a bit fun with them. They are true Angels and credit to Sunderland Royal. The manager is an absolutely fantastic person and is very easy to get on with and always has a smile for you which makes you visit to the unit much more relaxed and a more pleasurable, and of course you do form bonds with the nurses that treat you the most and it does help in your Cancer journey. Before I started treatment, I heard a lot of horror stories about the unit and staff not being very friendly and abrupt, but is a fantastic environment with fantastic staff and I love every one of them
