Written by a NHS patient at Guys and St Thomas' Group Practice

Dr Taylor listened to us when no one else seemed to and agreed to give my husband radical radiotherapy after a lung cancer recurrence in the mediastinum 3.5 years after pneumonectomy. Others said he was ‘treatable but incurable’. It is now four years since the radical radiotherapy and so far NED. Thank you Dr Taylor.
