Dr Shaffer and all the staff in the Cromwell were brilliant. Unfortunately, the radiography machines broke down on several occasions, causing waits and rescheduling of my treatment mid-way through the second treatment series.

All options 5 stars.I’m still though experiencing discomfort below the ring finger when it is bent backwards. It takes a little time in the mornings to get the hand flexing satisfactorily. Trigger finger is developing, I may need to have surgery on this from Mr Jepson.

Only negative is that the first round of radiotherapy 2 years didn't work. New nodules grew, hence this second round of treatment. Fingers crossed.

I think that a simple leaflet outlining matters, in the same way as after the treatment, but after the initial consultation would give further reassurance before treatment is started.

My only disappointment with the process is that I believed there was a 3 month final follow-up as part of the overall procedure. It is very disappointing to find that if I want this follow-up I need to pay a further £150. Surely the practise would want a 15 mins closure call?

My initial appointment with Dr Shaffer was by Zoom. The consultation was informative and I felt very comfortable throughout. I'm now looking forward to my follow up face-to-face appointment. I would recommend this approach.
