Despite being advised on having advanced prostate cancer and being put on a 2 week pathway by the Lister teams at start of September , after a month , we still not even have a date for an MRI , which is now holding up a biopsy and bone scan also outstanding .So cannot see the cancer specialist or start any treatment until all these are done . No communication from anyone involved either . This will impact on outcomes. No thought of the patient or the family . Asked to go to a local hospital for ease and speed , but this was declined .
"Poor cancer pathway , standards not met "
