May Cancer Awareness Month

Posted on 4 May, 2023

During the month of May there are a few types of cancers that Cancer Research would like to make patients aware of. These are: Bladder Cancer, Melanoma/Skin Cancer and then on May 8th there is World Ovarian Cancer Day.

Please see below all the posters that have been designed to help patients look out for symptoms of these types of cancers. If you experience any of the symptoms these may not be cancer related but don’t take that risk, take action and contact the surgery to arrange an appointment with one of our clinicians.
