my father has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. The treatment received by a particular Consultant is the most atrocious. I am in the process of writing a complaints letter. As an oncologist you need to have the basic skills of at least caring but unfortuantely this Consultant does not even have this. My fathers scans came back on xmas eve revealing his cancer spread to the brain which needed attending to and this Consultant because they were on holiday failed to respond to emails and voice messages left for them as they were on their 'holidays'.

Absolute disgrace....
