I attended this unit on the 18 sep to have a lumpectomy arrived at 7.45 the same as everyone. I was took to a pod no bed or tv weren't allowed to have a partner with you at this stress full time. I was taken to have wires put in had to trek about the hospital half dressed in a gown with jeans staff were fab no complaints about any of them from breast screen to surgery all were helpfully and great at their job I just think the unit is lacking some comfort to people who are facing difficult times
