Hi - New to the group. I have been having treatment for rectal cancer for the past 5 years at Weston Park Hospital, Sheffield. Thinking of moving to Tunbridge Wells and surrounding area to be closer to my daughters. Can anyone tell me what the Cancer Services are like Tunbridge Wells please.
Hi Spoks, although I had my treatment further up in Kent at Bromley, I know the Tunbridge Wells hospital at Pembury. This is part of the Tunbridge Wells and Maidstone NHS Trust. I think that the main cancer centre is at Maidstone with facilities at both hospitals. I believe their reputation is good but you might find more specific information if you contact that Trust.
It is a nice part of the country to live in. All the best
John
