The colorectal service has close links in working practice and through multi-disciplinary team meetings (MDT’s) with an extensive range of services through out the hospital and Central South Coast Cancer Network (CSCCN). Some of these include:

Alternatively, he or she may discharge you back to your GP as they may be better placed to support your future care.

If this is the case, he or she will explain this to you and suggest that, if you still have symptoms, are in pain or feel that you need to be seen again, you can contact the booking team to request a patient-initiated follow up.
