Appointments

Surgical clinic

If you are having surgery, you will be invited to an appointment at one of our surgical clinics. At this clinic you will meet one of our consultant surgeons and your clinical nurse specialist (CNS). These appointments are usually held in the Stokes Centre of Urology. Learn more about cancer surgery at Royal Surrey.

 

Pre-operative assessment

Ahead of any surgical procedure you will have a pre-operative assessment. This helps to ensure that you are fit and ready for surgery. The assessment may be done over the telephone or you may be asked to attend a clinic, which is held in Outpatients 15. Find out more about your pre-operative assessment.

 

Oncology clinic

If you are having an oncological treatment, such as radiotherapy or chemotherapy, you will meet with your consultant oncologist soon after your surgical appointment. The initial meeting will be face-to-face and a clinical nurse specialist (CNS) is also likely to be present.

During your first appointment, they will discuss treatment options and the possible side effects. Once you have started treatment you will have regular appointments with a member of your team to ensure you are tolerating the treatment and have the appropriate medication and support.

These clinics are held on a Monday and Thursday afternoon in the Cancer Centre, Level B.
