"Treatment of cancer at the N&N"

About: Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital

I chose this hospital because the staff had cared for my husband so well when he had cancer. I was treated with great care and respect throughout my journey from diagnosis through treatment to a successful outcome.

I had contact with a surgeon, three oncologists, a chemo team and a radiotherapy team and as well as them I had two oncology nurses whom I could call at any time. If they weren't there they would call me back very quickly. Knowing that I wasn't isolated helped tremendously when I had bad times.

What impressed me deeply was the communication between all these specialists. Apart from meetings they held across different disciplines they logged every single event so each of them knew exactly what was going on in my treatment.

I am profoundly grateful for the wonderful, caring staff of the N&N.
