About

Private appointments can begin at a new diagnosis and continue through treatment and follow-up, covering treatment planning, sequencing, side-effect management and ongoing review. Second-opinion appointments can also explore whether there are alternative options worth considering in Cornwall, Devon, elsewhere in the UK or overseas.
