“I really enjoyed the meeting; MDT was great and demonstrated the difference of opinion between surgeons and oncologist. Overall a very useful meeting”
“The virtual MDT reassured me that the issues I face are not unique. The management plans I decided in appeared to have consensus, which was reassuring. The format of the day meant that I was able to update on a number of areas within a single course.”
