Following on from Mike Pugh’s letter of praise for the quick response by his GP Dr Llewellen and medical team, I too would like to give a gold star to Dr Llewellyn and his frontline team at the Littlemoor surgery for their excellent help whenever called upon. I was recently diagnosed with bowel cancer and have nothing but praise for the treatment and operation by the surgeon Mr Lamparelli, also the excellent care and encouragement given me in Lulworth ward at Dorset County Hospital by every member of the staff.

I’ve now returned home and am having excellent after-care by the ‘Stoma’ team and the district nurse which has given me the confidence that I will make a complete recovery.
