Patients asked not to delay initial appointment
Patients referred for breast cancer treatment are being urged not to delay their first appointment.
Manx Care announced this week that newly-referred patients are now being seen within two weeks for the first time in 18 months.
In May, just over half were seen within the 14-day target.
Manx Care CEO Teresa Cope says it's important patients don't wait:
