"Breast clinic"

About: Lincoln County Hospital / Breast surgery Lincoln County Hospital / Oncology

(as the patient),

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in the summer of 2023 at Lincoln Breast Clinic. My husband and I were about to visit our house in Spain for three months so Mr G prescribed Letrozole and sent us on our way. He told us that this would stop the cancer growing and that he would operate when we got back.

Following further scans and tests in the autumn and another break for us to visit Paris I was operated on in January 2024. The operation was a complete success and radiotherapy followed in May last year. A mammogram last month showed that I was in the clear.

During this whole process the staff and surgeon were amazing. Mr G treated both my husband and I with respect and kindness. We felt that we were individuals rather than patients.

The McMillan nurses were wonderful. I would like to make a special mention of Nicki who was always at the end of the phone to answer my queries. If the rest of the NHS was like Lincoln Breast Clinic the country would have nothing to worry about.
