Breast clinics resume as new locum radiologist starts in position

Service has been 'severely impacted' by staff absence for the past few weeks

A locum Breast Radiologist has now started their clinics on the Isle of Man.

The service has been 'severely impacted' by staff absence for the past few weeks.

The disruption left some patients unsure when their urgent referrals would be dealt with, leading to the Health Minister Claire Christian facing an emergency question in the House of Keys.

Manx Care says those waiting for an appointment have been contacted and is in the process of getting in touch with those who have been referred.
