Wearing our black NHS uniforms, we are the Radiotherapy Engineers working behind the scenes to keep cancer treatment running safely and smoothly.

Our role is critical — we install, maintain, and monitor the high-precision equipment that delivers radiotherapy to patients every day.

We ensure that every machine is accurate, reliable, and ready when it matters most.

Though patients may not always see us, they can trust that every dose of radiotherapy is backed by a team of highly trained radiotherapy engineers who care deeply about the technology and the people it serves.

Bookings Administrators​

Our helpful bookings team deal with radiotherapy bookings and appointment enquiries only.

Before we can book your radiotherapy, the bookings team will need a referral and your signed consent form from your consultant. You will normally receive this appointment within 2 weeks of the consultant referral. If your consultant has referred you for urgent or emergency radiotherapy then we will contact you within 48 hours.​

If you are expecting to start radiotherapy treatment and have not received an appointment or have any other concerns, please contact the bookings team.

Receptionists​

Our friendly reception team will greet you and can help with general queries, parking and transport when you are in the department.
