Cancer patients survey shows 90% say treatment excellent or very good

Most cancer patients in Wales suggests the vast majority thought their care was excellent or very good.

In a survey of more than 7,000 patients, nearly nine out of 10 respondents gave high marks to their care in the NHS.

But there were variations between hospitals and some cancer types.

Those with rarer conditions like lung cancer were less likely to be positive than those with more common cancers.

Macmillan Cancer Support said the figures were "fantastic" but showed areas where improvements were needed.

Susan Morris, general manager for Wales for Macmillan Cancer Support, spoke Felicity Evans on the BBC's Good Morning Wales programme.
