Very clear and articulate explanation

Posted By APW1

"Very clear and articulate explanation"

About: Borders General Hospital / Borders Macmillan Centre Borders General Hospital / Medical Oncology

(as the patient),

Excellent discussion with Dr Kerr and Craig regarding multiple symptoms and scans with full explanation of diagnosis and next steps. Very clear and articulate explanation at just the right level of technical detail.

I felt like a significant amount of preparatory analysis and in-depth discussions had taken place beforehand which led to a carefully thought through set of options being outlined.

The care and attention was exemplary.

Dear APWI,

Thank you sincerely for taking the time to share your very positive experience of the Rapid Cancer Diagnostic Service (RCDS). Dr Kerr and Craig work very hard alongside the relevant clinical teams, to progress timely care planning and offer clear communication through what can be such an uncertain time. Your feedback means a great deal to them and will be incorporated into wider RCDS reporting as this new service is evaluated nationally.

Please do keep in touch with your point of contact if and when needed.

With Kindest Regards,

Lynda Taylor, Nurse Consultant and Lead Cancer Clinician, NHS Borders
