About: Busselton Cancer Services Clinic

(as the patient),

Soon after our Mesothelioma diagnosis and the commencement of treatment we were contacted by Kim from Busselton Cancer Services Clinic. She has been a lifeline over the last eighteen months. The small day-to-day problems have been adequately dealt with, between Specialists visits, and she has been a great comfort.

We fail to see how that can be maintained if the number of staff are cut. There are large numbers of people who have to deal with cancer everyday, who I’m sure are reliant on a friendly voice, on the phone offering advice.
