Dr Patrick Ormond and Dr Rupert Barry for their expertise in their field of dermatology and understanding of the psychological aspects of having a major procedure done under local anaesthetic. Dr Barry could not have been kinder and more approachable like as if he had no other patient to look after than me. All the other patients I met who were attending Dr Barry described him as a gentleman.

All the Nursing staff in the Oncology day ward are to be commended for their committment, diligence and most importantly caring attitude towards their patients. They are working under extreme pressure due to insufficient numbers and too many very ill patients. The latter unfortunately will not decrease but the former must increase otherwise the vital service as currently supplied will collapse.
