Cancer Care and Support

Our cancer outcomes have improved significantly over recent years, including our survival rates, which have never been higher. However, our work continues to make sure that everyone with cancer receives world-class care, support and treatment.

We would review patients who are concerned about Cancer as a possible diagnosis. Your GP is able to perform screening tests and investigations. If your symptoms indicate an urgent review is required, you will be referred under a Two week wait pathway.

The Robert Horrell Centre at Peterborough city hospital run a drop in service (normally) mon-fri or there is a telephone number with a voicemail. They do loads of good stuff there – arts &crafts, make up/skin care and wig sessions, acupuncture, support with fatigue/sleep/anxiety, financial advice etc etc the list is endless
