Nick Lees dismissed signs of cancer as a mark from his golf bag
Man who credits King for cancer diagnosis first to receive robotic microsurgery
An avid golfer who dismissed signs of cancer as a mark from his golf bag has become the first patient in the UK to have robotic microsurgery.
Nick Lees, 47, from Godalming in Surrey, eventually sought help after seeing news articles surrounding the King’s cancer diagnosis.
He then discovered that he had a rare type of skin cancer “the size of two 50 pence pieces”.
Medics needed to urgently remove the cancer.
And to aid the reconstruction of the tissue and vessels which were damaged during the cancer-removal procedure, they used robotic-assisted microsurgery – the first time it has been used in the UK.
