Ovarian cancer patient, Betsy, called The Royal Marsden Hotline when she was feeling unwell after a treatment session. 

“Having access to the 24-hour hotline is so reassuring. Feeling supported is worth its weight in gold, knowing that you always have someone to speak to – whatever time of the day it is.” 

The hotline team assessed her symptoms and advised her to attend the Medical Day Unit immediately. When she did, the day unit team found an infection and were able to treat it much more swiftly as a result.
