Advances in treating solid tumors

摘要

It is a fairly long story as it took me while to get there. I used to want to be a neurologist when I was in medical school and as a junior doctor. However, although it is a wonderful speciality, after 6 months in neurology, I just didn't really see myself as being a consultant neurologist longer term. Then I did 6 months as a junior doctor in intensive care. But after that, even when I had passed all of my exams, I still didn't really know what to do. I had actually by chance done 3 months of oncology near the start of my training and I'd enjoyed it, so I applied for an oncology job at the Marsden. I started in the beginning of 2000 and I have been here ever since.
