Quote about this course
- "Some feedback about my recent oncology training ....I have just been speaking to a member who had tests for early signs of colon cancer. I could understand all of his treatment and what he went through, I could then help him with advising that this was standard procedure – which made myself and the member feel a lot better" Course participant, Health Insurer, 2009
