Actress Alex Kingston has thanked two NHS clinicians for the “warm, sensitive and incredible care” she received during treatment for womb cancer.
The former Doctor Who star praised the care she received at Oxford University Hospitals, and in particular from consultants Dr Christina Pappa and Dr Sally Trent.
She made the comments during BBC Radio 5 Live’s special day of programming marking World Cancer Day on Wednesday.
Kingston told a special edition of the You, Me and the Big C podcast she was “just in awe of all the medics that I met” during her cancer treatment.
“Everybody was incredibly warm and sensitive,” she said.
“I was fully aware of the journey I was going to go on and assured there would be support the entire way.”
