Service overview - Radiotherapy
Run by a combination of consultant doctors and specially trained radiotherapists, our departments provide radiotherapy (X-ray) treatment for conditions such as malignant tumours and cancer.
Do you still need your ultrasound scan?
If you are waiting for an ultrasound scan at one of our sites you may receive a text message asking if you still need your scan. If you do, we will arrange for this to be performed as soon as possible. If you have had your scan done elsewhere or are feeling better, please reply so that we may see other patients quicker.
The message will look like this:
Video appointments
Many of our services offer video calls as a more convenient way of having an appointment with one of our healthcare professionals. This reduces the need for you to attend the hospital physically.
If you have an appointment letter with a video appointement link and instructions, please read more on our Video appointments page.
