Saw Prof Wilcken for a chemotherapy plan after my diagnosis. He explained the options clearly and helped me feel supported every step of the way here at Westmead. The team are responsive and I appreciated how they checked in during my treatment schedule.
Very grateful for Prof Wilcken's care. He listened to my concerns about side effects and adjusted my treatment with care. The Westmead team made the whole process as smooth as possible, from the initial consult to follow-up care.
Relieved to have a cancer specialist who phoned back promptly when I had questions about symptom management. Prof Wilcken’s approach at Westmead felt personalised and respectful, with clear explanations about what to expect next.
Prof Wilcken helped us navigate palliative care and ongoing symptom control with compassion. The Westmead team coordinated well with our local GP and provided honest, practical guidance during a difficult time.
Good news after my follow-up visit. Prof Wilcken outlined the plan for ongoing monitoring and explained chemotherapy expectations in plain terms. I felt supported by the entire Westmead team.
I’m from Parramatta and found the Westmead facility convenient. Prof Wilcken was thorough in his assessments and made sure my family understood the treatment pathway, which made a big difference.
Highly recommending Prof Wilcken for anyone facing cancer treatment. His follow-up care at Westmead, including symptom management, helped me stay on track and feel hopeful again.
