About: Oncology / Radiotherapy

(as the patient),

I am in my third week of radiotherapy and have 3 sessions left. I was very pleased to be on the list for radiotherapy so quickly - ie within four weeks of seeing the consultant and having surgery and chemo.

The system works well here and the staff are really helpful and friendly.

A slight problem for me is travel. I live in Blairgowrie and thankfully because my husband and I are both retired he drops me off here and then goes to try and find a parking space. It would be very difficult to do this journey by public transport but it is what it is and there is no alternative.

Dear Clare1, thank you very much for taking the time to feedback your experience of our Radiotherapy Department. It is very encouraging to hear that you received swift surgery and chemo previously and that our system continues to work well for you.

Car parking is indeed an ongoing issue and our Head of Therapeutic Radiography continues to take this to departmental meetings.

On behalf of all our staff in radiotherapy, I hope you benefit from your treatments and wish you well in the future.

Kind regards... Bob
