Reviews
Dr Alison Birtle is a wonderful person.. her smile and personality makes you feel better as soon as she enters the room! Very professional and understanding... I can't recommend her enough...*****
If you need to be in safe hands this is the Doctor to have.
Attention to detail, care and clear with everything she does.
Highly recommended.
Alison Birtle has all you would want in a cancer consultant - she is extremely professional but also very approachable; she puts you at ease, explains clearly what she is doing and why, takes a genuine interest in you and your overall health, never seems rushed during an appointment, makes sure that you have understood what she is recommending and what she intends to do, and is always extremely courteous and polite. She is a real asset to the Lancaster Royal Infirmary.
Dr Birtle, one of the nicest doctors I have ever met. No nonsense, straight talking, kind and compassionate. She has cared for me for the past 10 years, going out of her way to ensure the best treatment is obtained, arranging trials of new treatments, both at Preston and The Marsden in London. Dr Birtle always has time to sit and explain her treatment plans and listens to and addresses your concerns. She treats you like a person and fills you with confidence. I am full of admiration and respect a great Oncologist.
Oh by the way, she can be a bit bossy in the nicest way, but I got to admit she has always been right.
Thank you.
Dr Birtle is very understanding and gives me great confidence, I know she will get me the best treatment available at this time. My son came with me and is of the same opinion. Edith Wilson
