Long delay to prostate cancer op

Hi, like many people my Dad has a long wait (possibly until next year) for the operation for his prostate cancer. We've looked into local private hospitals but they are all dedicating resources to the covid response. I was wondering if there were any mor options for him? 

  • Hi Els84,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry to read about your Dad - I hope you're getting on OK.

    Unfortunately I'm not able to advise on this - it's only really your Dad's doctor or specialist who can do this. If you'd like to speak to one of our nurses, who may be able to offer some support or additional information, they're available on 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    I hope that he is able to get an appointment sooner that you'd expect.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
