I am a patient of Dr Birtle and cannot recommend her highly enough. She is very supportive and reassuring at the times when it matters most. I feel safe in her hands. Her open, friendly manner during consultations and follow up meetings is a breath of fresh air. As well as her commitment to her day job she is a great supporter of cancer research and innovation and of the work of local cancer charities the latter of which she supports with a great singing voice at local fund raising events.

Dr Birtle is always friendly, professional, and takes the time to listen to your concerns. (Always asks about my job as a wedding photographer). She is disarming whilst giving the impression she is always at the top of her game.

I first met Dr Birtle at the Royal Lancaster infirmary, she explained the treatment I would receive in a clear and concise manner, and I found myself put at ease with her professionalism, enthusiasm and a very caring manner, she made sure that I understood things before I left the appointment, I have had numerous appointments and a session of radiotherapy plus a drug trial, and I found Dr Birtle was always there for me and willing to listen to what I had to say, an excellent Doctor.
