Hello and thanks for posting,

I can appreciate your question.

Anyone that meets certain clinical criteria are automatically put on the 2 week pathway to receive prompt assessment. Doctors do this so that other referrals meeting different criteria can be booked in as non urgent. A doctor does not always think it is cancer, but will always refer promptly just to be sure.

It is important to keep an open mind until more results are known.

I hope that this helps,

Best wishes,

Vanda
