"Chemotherapy Sessions - end of 3rd -> start of 4th"

About: Lister Hospital

I've been at the Lister Hospital recently 3 times as my 6-session chemo journey segues from my 3rd session into my 4th session:-

Tuesday 19th June - Macmillan Cancer Unit - Appointment at 11:30 am for Review by nurse: professional, useful, helpful & friendly;

Friday 22nd June: Pathology Unit, where you just turn up for your blood test: we know now that if we can go fairly early on a Friday afternoon that the queue is usually modest. Got a speedy, professional & friendly service.

Today Tuesday 26th June: Macmillan Cancer Unit again - Appointment at 9.00 am for chemotherapy: Usual excellent service. Three particular comments: grateful to the nurse who explained to the waiting room at large at one point about a bit of a hold-up (so we knew the score, and we knew the reason). Second, thanks to the cleaners, who appear among other things to keep the toilets spotless. And third, for the first time, appreciated the volunteer therapist who if you wish briefly applies touch to relax you (worked both for me and my wife).
