I first met Dr Eagleton while very ill in hospital. A diagnosis had not been forthcoming from a long stream of consultants in the two weeks before we met. Her diagnosis was immediate and accurate. Stage 4b Hodgkins chemo treatment was quickly organised and started in a matter of a couple of days. Her support, kindness and confidence was, I believe, a significant factor in my successful treatment and subsequent recovery. That was several years ago, I still see her but now its more of a social appointment than a medical one. I still recall her exemplary and empathic approach to what I found a very difficult subject. There was no blinding with science or fluffy platitudes, no question I had that wasn't answered with care and concern. A superb doctor and without whose help I'm certain I wouldn't be writing this.
